Action taken
On 04/15/2026, the firm sent via mail/email an "Urgent Medical Device Recall" Letter to customers informing them that due to a manufacturing process packaging error, correctly manufactured and labeled individual units of the Covidien Shiley" cuffed fenestrated adult tracheostomy tube with reusable inner cannula were inadvertently placed into incorrect display boxes. A customer report indicating that the product display box is incorrectly labeled as item code 6CFN, which corresponds to cuffless devices.
