Stryker Sustainability Solutions is recalling approximately 56,740 tourniquet cuffs because they can detach at the welding connection between the cuff and the internal bladder. This defect causes the cuff to lose its ability to maintain pressure during medical procedures. The recall affects several models of the Color Cuff including 18-inch (Red) and 24-inch (Yellow) versions. No injuries have been reported, but a loss of pressure during surgery can lead to complications.
The cuff may suddenly detach from its inflation bladder, causing an immediate loss of pressure. This failure can result in unexpected bleeding or a compromised surgical field, potentially delaying medical procedures or causing injury to the patient.
COLOR CUFF SINGLE PORT, SINGLE BLADDER 18" (RED)
COLOR CUFF DUAL PORT, SINGLE BLADDER 18" (RED)
COLOR CUFF DUAL PORT, SINGLE BLADDER 24" (YELLOW)
