Summary

Cook Incorporated is recalling approximately 7,958 Approach CTO and Approach Hydro ST Micro Wire Guides because the device labels state the incorrect expiration dates. Using these medical devices beyond their intended lifespan may lead to performance failures or compromised sterility. These wire guides are used in vascular procedures and were distributed nationwide across the United States and worldwide.

Risk

The incorrect expiration dates on the product labels could lead healthcare providers to use devices that have degraded or are no longer sterile, potentially causing patient infections or device malfunctions during critical medical procedures.
