Timeline

30 Oct 2019	Recall initiated by company
6 Dec 2019	Classified by FDA	+37 days
18 Dec 2019	Published in enforcement report	+12 days

Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

The firm has become aware that due to a manufacturing issue impacting the biopsy needle depth stop, there exist the potential that some biopsy needle depth stops, when tightened, may not securely tighten to the biopsy needle. This could result in a delay in surgery.

Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
