Customers were notified via mail and/or email on about 02/07/2018. Instructions for distributors included to notify all affected customers who may have received potentially impacted products and to complete and return the Distributor Acknowledgement Form. Instructions for customers included to ensure adequate connection of the Flex Connector to Swivel Connector before use of the product by following. This accomplished by ensuring a tight fit is achieved on the Swivel with the Flex Connector advanced approximately three-quarters over the Swivel, so a gap remains visible. If and adequate connection is observed, the Flex Connector may be replaced with a new, sterile Flex Connector and the system connection should be re-evaluated. Lastly, if use of a Flex Connector with the ventilator circuit is optional, the closed suction Swivel Connector can be connected directly to the ventilator circuit. During use, if a disconnection between the Flex Connector and Swivel Connector is observed during use, replace the Flex Connector with a new, sterile Flex Connector (e.g. HYH Product # 1115) and ensure adequate connection as described in this notice. If an inadequate connection occurs, Halyard Health instructs customers to safe the Flex Connector and report it via the Product Complaint Process (PIQ) and the local Halyard Health Sales Representative will assist. Additionally customers were instructed to complete and return the Acknowledgement Form and distribute the recall notice to all clinicians in the facility that may be impacted.
