Recall details

Recalling firm
Rochester Medical Corp
Reason for recall
Rochester Medical observed some Magic3 and HydroSil(R) catheter packages in which the catheter was caught in the package seal during the packaging process.
Action taken
Consignees were contacted by telephone or in-person visit. The communication provided the reason for the recall and a list of affected products and their lot numbers, and instruction for the removal. Distributors were given instructions to notify their customers in turn. For the customers that were not reached via telephone call or in-person, a letter, "Voluntary recall of magic product samples," was used for the recipients of product samples and sent via e-mail. The letter was dated January 14, 2009 and asked customers to destroy all of their remaining sample inventory of the affected lot numbers.
