RecallDepth

Medtronic DLP Femoral Arterial Cannula, models 57414, 57417, and 57421, and DLP Femoral Cannula Replacement Kit, Models 96017 and 96021. Sterilized using Ethylene Oxide. The cannula and dilator components are polyurethane and have tapered proximal tips to aid in diameter transition from the dilator. The dilator components utilize tip indicator bands for minimum tip alignment of the component parts. The cannula body is marked for depth insertion. The components are designed to fit over each other to progressively dilate the vessel during insertion. The dilator allows a 0.1-cm (0.038-in) guidewire to pass through it to aid in insertion. A soft, tapered transition fitting terminates in a 0.95-cm (3/8-in) connection site or barbed connector.

This recall has been terminated (originally issued June 26, 2015).
