Why it was recalled

Acute drainage catheters, indicated for use in removing fluid during acute drainage/aspiration procedure, manufactured with safety indicators that erroneously show catheter in sharp position when catheter is in blunt position, which may lead users to believe device is not yet in pleural or peritoneal space when it is, may cause discomfort, delay to treatment, injury to internal organs or vessels.
