Boston Scientific has issued an urgent product recall of one lot/batch of Katzen™ Infusion Wires (Material no. (UPN). M001461930; Catalogue no. 46-193; Lot/Batch no. 14270326; expiry date March 2014) because the label on the carton and the inner pouch indicates an incorrect device length.
According to the manufacturer, no injuries are expected to occur as a result of this mislabeling. If physician could not reach the target anatomic location because the device was shorter than expected, a minimal delay in the procedure would occur. Boston Scientific suggests immediately ceasing further distribution or using of any remaining products affected by this recall. Recalled products will be replaced.
According to the local supplier, Hong Kong is NOT affected.
If you are in possession of the affected product, please contact your supplier for necessary actions.
