Product Description

Custom procedural convenience kits and trays, cardiac, labeled as: a) HEART CATHETERIZATION TRAY, kit number JRHC45G; b) TAVR PACK, kit number LLTV10; c) CATH PED LF SJH, kit number SJCA21F; d) CATH HEART ADL LF SJH, kit number SJCH22F; e) INT RAD PORTS-LF - 206060, kit number UDIR58AL

Reason for Recall

During an internal investigation, ACS identified that several components were "piggybacked" to ACS trays and subjected to the ACS sterilization process. There is no supporting documentation stating the "piggybacked" components were assessed to determine if they were suitable for exposure to elevated temperatures for an extended period of time and further exposure to sterilization. As a result, the piggybacked components may (1) have a loss/lack of functionality, (2) loss of drug efficacy, if applicable, and (3) may have had higher than specified EO residuals.
