What the authority reported
Boston Scientific's complaint investigations have identified that a subset of air ingress complaints are associated with hemostatic valve damage related to dilator insertion orientation during device preparation. Valve damage may result in air ingress, potential air embolism, and associated patient harm. This risk can be mitigated by inserting the dilator straight through the center of the valve and fully advancing it into the sheath body.
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
