Where it was sold

Why it was recalled

During initial set-up and/or replacement of the dispenser batteries, the touch dispenser touchscreen can inadvertently lose calibration. This issue can also occur if the touchscreen is pressed when the device is powered on in preparation for a balloon administration. As a result, the touchscreen can become unresponsive and balloon inflation cannot be initiated.

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