Why it was recalled

The luer could break and cause the device to leak or break off and get stuck in the fistula needle port rendering the port inaccessible for dialysis. As a result, the patient would need to be re-cannulated with a new fistula needle to obtain their dialysis treatment.

Class II means using this product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems; the chance of serious harm is remote.
