Reason for Recall
Smiths Medical became aware that three lot numbers of a specific model of Bivona Cuffless FlexTend" Tracheostomy Tube (model 60PFS45, lots 3991171, 3991172, and 3988103) may have been incorrectly packaged with a straight neck flange instead of a V-neck flange. As a result, there is potential for patient injury if an incorrect device or accessory is selected for use. This use could lead to an internal injury resulting from excessive device contact with tissue, or an external patient injury due to external portions of the device pressing into or rubbing against tissue.
