Recall details

Recalling firm

Bayer Healthcare

Reason for recall

The firm's investigation of the Medrad Intego indicates that the inner diameter of the saline tubing is out of specification and may result in the system failing to position the dose correctly during extraction, potentially leading to a low measurement of the extracted dose or to a higher dose being extracted. The occluded SAS tubing may impair the priming function and prompt an RP prime fail
