Reason for recall

EXP did not register as a medical device establishment, list the devices being recalled, or establish its own quality system and instead relied on the fact that its vendors were registered and had their own quality systems.

Action taken

EXP first notified their customers to quarantine EXP devices February 11-17, 2015. Customers were contacted through telephone, e-mail, and written communications. Customers were instructed to recover and quarantine all EXP products from their inventories. EXP believes that they have contacted all customers to whom products were shipped between April 26, 2014, and December 9, 2014. A second letter is scheduled to be sent in July 2015 (date unknown at this time). This letter will advise users of the recall of due to lack of registration with the FDA.
