Reason for recall
Medtronic is conducting a voluntary recall of all former Covidien Trellis 6 and Trellis 8 Peripheral Infusion Systems due to potential for a sterility breach of the outer packaging or pouch material. A breach of the outer pouch may compromise the outside surface sterility of the inner pouch and does not directly affect the sterility of the device components within the inner pouch.
