Where it was sold

Why it was recalled

Flexible Arterial Cannula and High-Flow Aortic Arch Cannula connectors were identified to contain flash on the exterior of the cannula connector that exceeded established specifications. Because the flash has the potential to detach in the operative field, TCVS has decided to remove all affected lots that were manufactured with the affected connector part.

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