What the authority reported
During an internal review, Medicom has identified the potential for unexpected variability of endotoxin levels on the products. While the products have been demonstrated to consistently meet the endotoxin specification for blood contacting or implantable products, variability has been observed indicating that products in the market potentially may not consistently meet the more stringent endotoxin specification for devices that contact the cerebrospinal fluid.
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.
