According to the Terumo (TMC) this device is used to access the human peripheral vascular system for short term use (less than 30 days) for the purpose of infusing fluids into patients. A small percentage of the catheters in the affected lots may have damage to the ETFE catheter which may allow the catheter to break during withdrawal.
