Recall number
Z-0021-2025

Ongoing Class II Medical devices

Recall started
23 April 2024
Reason
Neurovascular devices did not meet the minimum sample size required for endotoxin testing during manufacturing processes and are out of compliance with the AAMI ST72 standard, so these devices may exceed the acceptable limits of endotoxin levels; high levels of endotoxins may increase the risk of fever, shock and aseptic meningitis.

Ongoing Class II Medical devices

Recall started
18 April 2024
Reason
Stryker Neurovascular has observed an increased frequency of PTFE coating damage occurring on the Synchro Guidewires that may be caused by the practice of backloading the guidewire through the optional introducer accessory. This issue is limited to certain lots of the Synchro Guidewire that contain an older version of the introducer accessory. Due to variation in the manufacturing process of the supplier of the introducer accessory, certain lots of introducers have sharper than intended edges that can peel off the PTFE coating when physicians use a technique known as backloading. Users with impacted product in their inventory are cautioned not to use this backloading technique.
