Reason for recall
Certain pediatric arterial cannulas may have limited flexibility due to an increased length of the "hardened" cannula tip.
A sterility recall means a product that must be sterile, such as an injection or eye drop, may be contaminated. Using a non-sterile product can cause serious infection.
