Reason for recall

Affected lots of syringes may have a crack on the syringe collar, which may lead to delayed or repeated blood draw/fluid delivery. This issue may also lead to blood leakage during sampling of arterial blood or leakage during fluid delivery.

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