| Reason for the Action |
There have been reports of the products cracking or leaking when being used with propofol. This might result in the following problems:
• Cracks and leaks in the stopcock can cause a sudden, unmonitored drop in the infusion rate and unintended dosage drops. This can lead to unexpected patient awareness under anaesthesia or inadequate sedation.
• Cracks can create a breach in the closed sterile system increasing the risk of catheter-related bloodstream infections or sepsis. |
| Instructions for Customers/Users |
Customers are to: - Inspect stock on hand and immediately quarantine all batches to prevent further use. - Return stock on hand with the completed Customer Response Form to the sponsor. - Contact the local sale representative to arrange for a credit.
