Reason/Issue AngioDynamics, the manufacturer of Morpheus Smart PICC CT Kits is conducting a medical device recall on specific kit / lot numbers of power injectable PICC catheters. Based on a review of complaints, AngioDynamics has determined that the power injectable PICC catheters contained in these kits exhibit a higher than anticipated rate of extension tube fracture or leakage. Use of the PICC catheters that are subject to this recall may have an increased incidence of extension tube fractures or leakage which would require replacement of the PICC catheter.
