Recalled products

  1. ACROBAT V Vacuum Off-Pump System 

Reason

An internal finding identified the presence of pinholes/cuts in some of the Tyvek pouches of the vacuum tubing sets included as an accessory to these products.  As a result, there is a potential for the pouch integrity to be compromised, which may result in compromised sterility of the product.  If the compromised product is used in surgery there is a potential risk of infection for the patient.
