Sarnova HC, Llc has recalled approximately 1,078 Curaplex Field Cric Kits and Curaplex Cricothyrotomy Field Kits because the included Endotracheal Tube Holder is not compatible with the intended procedure. This defect means that during an emergency airway procedure, medical practitioners may be unable to properly secure the breathing tube after it has been inserted. The recall affects kits with specific item numbers and lot numbers distributed nationwide. Users are advised to contact the manufacturer or their healthcare provider for guidance on how to handle the affected medical supplies.
Because the tube holder is incompatible, practitioners cannot properly secure the airway tube during a cricothyrotomy procedure. This creates a significant risk that the tube could become dislodged, potentially leaving a patient without a secure airway during a critical medical emergency.
