Description

EkoSonic Endovascular Devices EKOS Intelligent Drug Delivery Catheter

Reason

The recalling firm identified ten devices which were distributed and could potentially be non-compliant. These devices potentially underwent a routine manufacturing test with non-compliant parameters, which may result in a small blister in the epoxy over transducers in the treatment zone. It is not known at the time the recall was initiated whether the non-compliant test parameters, or presence of the blisters, adversely affect operation of the device.

Action

All affected consignees were contacted by e-mail on August 9, 2016, and asked to sequester implicated devices.

Distribution

Three international consignees - Germany, New Zealand and Taiwan

Quantity

10 units
