Reason for Recall

Firm Action
On or about 04/11/2022, XVIVO Inc. issued an "URGENT- Field Safety Notice" for its XVIVO Organ Chamber via email to customers informing them XVIVO has identified that the primary package for a number of batches may have notable defects in the weld of the bag. The notable defects are unsealed sections of the weld (i.e. the bag is not completely closed). Unsealed sections in the weld may compromise the sterility of the product and therefore it is important to NOT use a product showing this defect.
Customer are instructed to:
1. Carefully check the primary package for unsealed sections. A follow-up "URGENT:-Medical Device Correction" issued on or about 05/06/2022, this letter provides photos of example of unsealed welds.
2. If unsealed sections are noted, do not use the product and contact XVIVO Customer Support at [email protected] for further action.
3. if not defects are noted, the product may be used as intended.
