What the authority reported
The depth markers on the epidural catheter have potential to fade or wear away during product use. This issue could create a delay in procedure, as it may prevent anesthesiologists from accurately determining the depth and placement of the catheter during the anesthesia procedure which may require product replacement. Recall start date: April 30, 2024
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.
