Description

Palindrome Precision SI Chronic Catheter, Sterile, Single Use, Rx Only. For vascular access for acute and chronic hemodialysis, apheresis, and infusion.

Reason

There is a potential leaking condition within the hub of specific chronic dialysis catheters, due to an inter-lumen void in the hub component, which may result in unanticipated fluid return during use.

Action

Customers were instructed to immediately quarantine and discontinue use for specific lots of chronic hemodialysis catheters, which are to be returned to Medtronic. If customers have further distributed product, they are asked to forward the information from the recall notification to those recipients. All customers are asked to complete and return the Consignee Product Retrieval Confirmation Form to [email protected]. Additionally, consignees are asked to share the notice within their organization and retain it for their records regarding the retrieval of unused product. If a consignee is aware of any adverse events associated with recalled product, they are to submit a report to FDA via Medwatch. Customers with any questions can contact their Medtronic Representative or call Customer Service at 800-962-9888, option 2. ***Updated 8/16/22*** Medtronic has created a website to help customers identify affected product: https://www.medtronic.com/covidien/en-us/products/c/renal-care-recall-lookup-tool.html#lotLookupTool
