Teleflex Medical Incorporated has announced a worldwide voluntary recall of its ISIS™ HVT™ Tracheal Tube Cuffed with Subglottic Secretion Suction Port (with and without Preloaded Stylet). This recall is being conducted because of complaints that the tracheal tube can kink during patient use. If a tracheal tube kinks, it can deprive the patient of adequate ventilation causing serious injury, including hypoxic injury and/or anoxia.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has classified this action as a Class I recall. FDA defines class I recalls as “a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.”
Teleflex initiated this recall by a letter to its U.S. customers on January 6, 2014. In accordance with the instructions provided in the recall letter, customers should immediately discontinue use of the recalled devices and return all unused ISIS products to Teleflex Medical. The affected product codes are:
