Reason

One lot of catalog # ECD02-B medical devices distributed in Canada (Lot # 199136216A) may contain a significant percentage of devices with an excessive amount of adhesive in one of the bonded joints. The excessive adhesive may significantly restrict or prevent fluid flow through the device. This issue can be immediately recognized by the end user, as the external console has a low flow alarm that will indicate to the user that fluid is not properly flowing through the device upon connection of the device and initiation of fluid flow.
