Reason for recall

A feeding (reflux) valve leakage issue. The feeding valve appears to close inconsistently, or close in a delayed manner, when an extension set is disconnected from the Low Profile Balloon device, thus allowing feeding solution or gastric contents to leak out of the device in some instances.

Packaging recalls include wrong labels, wrong products in the wrong bottle, missing leaflets, short-filled or empty capsules and seals that fail.
