Why it was recalled

Certain models and serial numbers of GlideScope GVL and AVL laryngoscope blades may separate, due to inadequate bonding of the silicone adhesive affixing the halves of the blade. The potential for blade separation may not be readily visible during routine inspection before or after intubation.

This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
