Here are the four latest medical device recalls compiled on Becker’s Hospital Review, starting with the most recent.
1. Citing a lack of sterility assurance, Abrams Royal Pharmacy in Dallas issued a voluntary recall on all lots of unexpired sterile products.
2. Chesire, Conn.-based Alexion Pharmaceuticals updated its voluntary recall, requesting hospitals return any unused vials of Soliris Concentrated Solution for Intravenous Infusion due to visible particles in the solution that could cause immunogenicity and thromboembolic risk.
3. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a Class I Recall on Spacelabs Healthcare's BleaseSirius and BleaseFocus Anesthesia Workstations. Loose hardware in the CAS I/II Absorbers could cause the Bag-to-Vent switch to fail.
