Issue

Baxter Healthcare Corporation (Baxter) is issuing an urgent medical device correction for the Minicap Extended Life Pd Transfer Sets listed, which are manufactured with peroxide-cured silicone tubing that transfers solution to and from the patient.

Baxter is aware of several recalls by other manufacturers related to the potential risk of exposure to nondioxin-like (NDL) polychlorinated biphenyl acids (PCBAs) and ndl polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) when using certain peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis devices. The source of the NDL PCBAs and/or NDL PCBs in those recalls was due to the manufacturing process of the silicone tubing.

Recall Start Date: October 21, 2024
