Companies Recall Faulty Devices

Two companies are conducting Class I recalls, according to the FDA.

ConvaTec, doing business as Unomedical, is recalling its manual pulmonary resuscitators with a clear or transparent ring and those with no ring visible because a potential malfunction may cause serious injury or death.

Centurion Medical Products is recalling its Premie Pack, kit code LM 110 and Full Term Meconium Pack, kit code LM115 because pediatric tracheal tubes used in the kits have an internal diameter smaller than indicated on the label. The discrepancy could result in an inability to remove secretions and cause partial or complete blockage of the airway and inability to ventilate the patient, the FDA says in a statement.
