Product packaging may exhibit small pinholes which may not be visible to the unaided eye, compromising the sterile barrier of the packaging. Exposure to non-sterile device may result in inflammation, infection, sepsis, and ischemia.
On May 18, 2023, the firm notified customers of the recall via an Urgent Medical Device Removal letter. Actions to be taken by the customer: If an affected device is already in use, please use according to normal practices. Monitor the patient for signs and symptoms of inflammation, infection, sepsis, and ischemia. If detected, treat according to clinical protocols. Please remove any affected product in inventory from areas of use. Unopened and unexpired affected product is eligible for credit upon return. Product Return: Please contact Getinge Customer Service at 1-888-943-8872 option 2 between the hours of 6:00 AM and 5:00 PM Pacific Standard Time to request a return authorization (RMA) and shipping instructions to return any affected product. Distributors who have shipped affected products to customers should forward the notification to customers' attention for appropriate action.
