Manufacturer Reason
for Recall
The reason these devices are being withdrawn from the market by Instrumed is that Instrumed did not market these devices prior to September 26, 1976, and therefore, does not meet all FDA requirements to market the devices as "Pre-Amendment" devices.
FDA Determined
Cause 2
No Marketing Application
