Description
Biomet INNERVUE DISPOSABLE SCOPE KIT 1.2MM WITH CANNULA SET, PRODUCT NUMBER 922141, STERILE
Reason
The cannula could not be connected to the scope and scopes disengage during use. The outer hub of Innervue scopes may become detached from the inner hub of the scopes during assembly of the scope to the Innervue hand piece. This condition may prevent the Innervue scope from being securely attached to the Innervue hand piece.
Action
On 2/10/2011, Biomet issued an "URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE NOTICE" to their Direct Accounts instructing customers to identify and discontinue use of the recalled products and return them to Biomet. Response forms were provided.
