Recall Details

Company:
Spectranetics Corporation
Reason for Recall:
There is a potential for thrombus formation on balloons prepped and staged in the vasculature for long durations. All users, such as those performing lead extraction cases may not be aware of this risk. It was determined that current labeling is insufficient to ensure all potential users minimize the time the balloon remains in vasculature. If left in too long it could lead to embolization.
Classification:
Class I - Dangerous

Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.

Status:
terminated
