Merit Medical Looks to Take Advantage of Rival Cook Medical's Catheter Recall
Merit Medical (NSDQ:MMSI) chief Fred Lampropoulos said his company is ready to take advantage of the worldwide recall of rival Cook Medical‘s central catheter sets.
The FDA in March slapped the Cook recall with a Class I label, denoting the risk of serious injury or death. It covers Cook’s single lumen central venous catheter sets and trays, single lumen pressure monitoring sets and trays, femoral artery pressure monitoring catheter sets and trays and radial artery pressure monitoring catheter sets and trays.
