FDA has informed Micro-Tech that the Elastic Traction Device is not appropriately classified as a Class I device and requires 510(k) clearance to be marketed in the US.

On October 7, 2020, the firm distributed Urgent Medical Device Recall letters to affected customers, advising them that the firm is voluntarily recalling the Elastic Traction Device. Further distribution or use of any remaining product should cease immediately. Customers were asked to identify and quarantine devices left in inventory. They should complete the customer Acknowledgement and Receipt Form accompanying the letter and return the form to Micro-Tech Endoscopy USA. If product is available for return, the firm will contact your facility to create a Returned Material Authorization with shipping instructions. Customers should pass the notice on to all those who need to be aware within their organization, or to any organization where the affected devices have been transferred.
