Action
A recall notification titled 1st NOTIFICATION - URGENT: VOLUNTARY MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION, dated June 22, 2022, was sent by mail. This communicated troubleshooting techniques if an out-of-range reading is encountered when utilizing the Codman CereLink System, while Integra finalized a root cause investigation. A second notification, dated August 23, 2022, for this recall states that Integra is now conducting a removal of Codman CereLink ICP Monitors. Customers are asked to discontinue use of affected devices as soon as possible and remove the devices from service. If an affected device is being used on a patient, continued use should only be determined by an individual risk-benefit analysis by the responsible attending clinician. If the recalled device continues to be used on a patient, the patient needs to be carefully monitored and ensure cable management. If a progressive decline in ICP readings is observed, use another monitoring system for continued patient case as soon as possible. Once patient care is complete, discontinue use of the monitor and remove it from service. As CereLink ICP Monitors are removed from use, a sales representative will facilitate the return of the affected monitor. Complete the Acknowledgement Form and return it to your Account Manager or email it to [email protected] or Fax the form to 1-609-750-4220. Keep a copy of the recall notification for your records.
