Reason for recall

Opticross 35 Peripheral Imaging Catheter is being recalled because the incremental telescoping length markings near the proximal end of the catheter shaft can flake off when the device is manipulated. No patient harm has been reported to date. The most common potential adverse health consequence would be prolonged procedure to exchange the catheter for another as this potential issue is observable and has occurred outside of the patient's body. The most server health consequence that is reasonably expected to occur if a catheter with this potential issue is used is embolization which would result of the flaking marks advance while flushing the catheter. All recalled devices should be returned to Boston Scientific.
