Microstream Instructions for Use recalled by Oridion Medical 1987

Timeline

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

Reason for recall

Neonatal-Infant and Adult-Pediatric CO2 Sampling Line/Airway Adapter/CO2 Oral-Nasal Filter Line/Intubated Filter (CO2) Line device users may experience difficulty/inability to disconnect adapter from endotracheal tube for procedures (e.g. suctioning), may cause treatment delay and/or unintended extubation, which could lead to respiratory failure, hypoxia, aspiration, and/or low oxygen saturation.

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.
