Reason for Recall

Cross-threading of the hemostasis valve may occur if it is tightened with the dilator in place, possibly preventing subsequent sealing of the valve when desired. This Field Correction reinforces the Directions for Use (DFU) and gives further guidance on correct use of the hemostasis valve to avoid cross-threading and to securely seal the valve, minimizing potential for undesired blood leakage.
