Manufacturer Reason
for Recall		Smiths Medical became aware that product returned to them under recall # Z-0800-06/ Z-0807-06 was inadvertently distributed to consignees after the recall was initiated 03/29/2006. The product was originally recalled because Locator Wand covers, which are supplied on the outside of PORT-A-CATH and P.A.S. PORT sterile trays, may have an insufficient seal and product sterility could be compromised.
