An URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE WITHDRAWAL notification letter dated 7/12/21 was sent to customers. Medtronic has concluded its investigation of potential deviations in the ethylene oxide sterilization processes performed by Steril Milano, the former supplier of our sterilization services for the DAR" airway products. Medtronic analyzed the available sterilization data and conducted validation tests on production lots where data was available. For products where sterilization process data was available and testing could be conducted, we determined that sterilization of those devices was achieved. However, because there was not a consistent controlled process at the sterilization facility, we are issuing a withdrawal of the production lots of the DAR" airway products which are currently under quarantine at your facility. Required Actions: 1. Please return affected product listed on Attachment A as indicated below. All unu
