Product Description

Terumo Advanced Perfusion System 1 Roller Pump, 4 Inch, Catalog Number 816570 - Product Usage: is indicated for use for up to 6 hours in the extracorporeal circulation of blood for arterial perfusion, regional perfusion, and cardiopulmonary bypass procedures, when used by a qualified medical proffessional who is experienced in the operation of this or similar equipment. The roller pump is used to move fluids through the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit and can be used for a number of applicatinos including arterial blood pumping, cardioplegia delivery, suction, and venting.

Reason for Recall

These roller pumps were assembled with pump shafts that may fail at the location of the thread where a locknut is installed. The failure is associated with a noise that is atypical of roller pump operation. The noise is caused when an unsecured shaft end contacts the rotating pulley of the roller pump. Prolonged use of a roller pump in this condition could lead to an eventual pump stop, resulting in the inability to create pump flow due to pulley loosening and drive belt damage.
