Teleflex Medical Slammed With Another Class 1 Recall
Teleflex (TFX) Medical is recalling an endobronchial tube that might shred or break, in what FDA is classifying as a Class I recall.
The Research Triangle Park, NC, company has received customer complaints that the double swivel connector on its Hudson RCI Sheridan Sher-I-Bronch Endobronchial Tube may break or separate on the tube, according to a statement by FDA. This may cause the device to leak and the patient to not receive enough oxygen or experience respiratory distress. Such a situation could possibly lead to re-intubation, patient injury or death, FDA said.
