- On July 12, 2018, the firm sent a Product Recall letter to its customers. Customers were provided with a full list of product codes and lot numbers and informed that those items had been recalled due to a potential for the suture wings to crack or break. Customers were informed that implanted catheters with intact suture wings do not need to be removed. However, an alternative method of catheter securement should be initiated for all implanted catheters, due to the potential for the suture wings to crack or break. Customers were instructed to return all unused recalled product to Medcomp. If product was further distributed, customers were asked to notify their sub-accounts. Contact your customer service representative for a Returned Goods Authorization (RGA) number if necessary. The phone number to call is 215-256-4201.
