Reason for recall

Revised OER-Pro, OER-Elite, OER-Mini endoscope reprocessor labeling- the LF-V and LF-P are no longer compatible endoscopes for reprocessing in the OERs. The addendum highlights the following changes: 1. Removal of LF-V and LF-P as compatible with the OER 2. Change conditions for ETO gas sterilization from 12% EtO to 100% EtO 3. Removing the reusable cleaning brush for the manual cleaning. Single Use brushes remain compatible

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.
