Reason for Recall

Hospira has become aware of customers using the incorrect size Receptal liners with their Receptal canisters, e.g., 1.5 L liner, 2L liner or 3L liner with a 1L canister. It is possible that if an incorrectly sized liner is used with a different size canister the lid may not fit and the vacuum/suction will not be sufficient and/or consistent.

Firm Action

URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE RECALL letters dated September 10, 2013 were distributed to direct accounts notifying them of the recall. The letter requests that customers to ensure that they only use liners and canisters of corresponding sizes (e.g. a 1000mL liner with a 1000mL canister) and to only use Hospira components. The letter further advises customers of an ongoing recall of the 1000mL Receptal systems. Customers were requested to complete and return the attached reply form and to notify other healthcare providers within their organization.Customers who further distributed the Receptal systems were requested to forward the letter to their customers and to request that the contact Stericycle at 1-888-943-5175 (Monday - Friday, 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM, CST) to obtain a reply form.
