Reason for Recall
St. Jude Medical has initiated a voluntary recall of two lots of Peel Away Introducers . Isolated lots could contain some items that have been mis-labelled with the incorrect French size of the outer box label. Some 9F products have been labelled as 7F and vice versa. Only the outer box label is affected by this error, the labels on the individual product pouches correctly identify the product. St Jude Medical has not received any reports of injures resulting from this mislabelling to date.
