FDA Hits Halyard Health’s KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes With a Class 1 Recall

The cuff inflation line of certain KimVent* Microcuff* Endotracheal tubes may detach from the tube during use (if pulled, tugged, or excess tube/patient movement occurs). If the inflation line detaches, the cuff will gradually deflate. This may lead to an air leak between the cuff and the tracheal wall, which in turn may reduce the amount of air that reaches the lungs.
