Reason/Issue
Medtronic is advising of a potential sterility breach for specific lots of the Cannulae products following a customer report indicating that, prior to use of a DLP I.M.A. Cannula, the sterile packaging was not sealed.
Seven (7) pouched devices were returned in December 2023, and it was confirmed there were several un-sealed areas with no adhesive transfer from the Tyvek onto the formed film.
Medtronic has determined that all models and lot numbers listed in the attached customer letter could potentially exhibit a sterility breach.
