Action

Consignees were contacted by telephone on 5/3/10 and if not reached, were sent a Rochester Medical "Urgent Medical Device Recall" letter on 5/6/10 dated April 26, 2010. The letter was addressed to Rochester Medical Corporation Customers. The letter described the problem and product involved; recommended consignees to record the quantity and lot numbers (s) on the enclosed postcard and return it to them; and to immediately destroy the product with the lots affected. In the case of distributors, the telephone call was followed by a letter sent/dated April 27, 2010 to each distributor. It advised distributors to isolate any remaining inventory with the specified lot numbers and to complete the disposition report. Letters included a customer letter for dissemination to their retail level customers. Retail customers were asked to segregate and destroy the affected products and record the action. The company will replace the destroyed product. The distributors started their contact to consignees on 4/28/10. Please contact Rochester Medical at 1-800-243-3315, or the firm's Customer Service Department at 1-507-533-9309 for additional information or for product return & replacement instructions.
