Reason for recall

Terumo CVS has been unable to validate a cleaning protocol to satisfy current regulatory concerns and expectations. As a result, an updated cleaning protocol will not be developed by Terumo CVS and it has been determined that the best course of action is for users to discontinue use of and dispose of HX2, TCM I and TCM II devices.

Lead and other heavy metals accumulate in the body. Children are most at risk; even low levels can affect development.
