Recalling Firm/ Manufacturer |
TELEFLEX LLC 3015 Carrington Mill Blvd Morrisville NC 27560-5437
|
Manufacturer Reason for Recall |
Teleflex LLC is initiating this voluntary field corrective action because the clip cartridges for the affected product is missing a key feature that restricts the application of the clip to the applier. With this step feature missing on the cartridge, the clip is mounted in a more variable position, allowing the clips to load farther back in the clip applier jaw grooves. This may potentially result in inappropriate or inadequate clip application to vascular structures.
