Safety Report: Atrium Express Drains - recalled due to unverified sterility of provided syringes, USA

Recall notice

Atrium Express Drains - recalled due to unverified sterility of provided syringes photo #1

United States

Getinge / Atrium Medical Corporation notified affected customers of a nationwide recall (medical device correction) for certain Atrium Express Dry Suction Dry Seal Chest Drains in response to a voluntary medical device recall initiated by a supplier, Nurse Assist. On November 8, 2023, Getinge received notice from Nurse Assist, LLC that its Sterile Water, USP, 30mL syringes were being recalled because they could not be verified to be sterile. The affected products were manufactured from November 20, 2020, to September 5, 2023, and distributed from December 18, 2020, through November 8, 2023.

Pre-packaged with every Express chest drain, the 30mL sterile water syringe is intended to fill the air leak monitor chamber for air leak detection during or after initial device set-up, if desired. During a chest drain knock-over event (device not kept in upright position), the water in the air leak monitor chamber could migrate from the air leak monitor chamber to the drainage fluid collection chamber and the patient could potentially be exposed to an infectious pathogen from the water supplied by Nurse Assist. If a patient was already successfully treated with one of the affected Express chest drains, there is no expected negative impact.

The affected Atrium Express Drains are as follows:
Product part number, product name, and UDI Device Identifier:
- 4000-100N, DRAIN, EXPRESS SINGLE W/AC, 00650862115130
- 4050-100N, DRAIN, EXPRESS BRU W/AC, 00650862115147
The affected lot numbers list is attached.

Please examine your inventory immediately to determine if you have any of the Atrium Express Dry Suction Dry Seal Chest Drains with the REF and LOT numbers listed in this notice. Should you have any affected product, please forward this notification to the clinical area(s) of your facility where this product may be used/stored. The LOT Number (6 digit code) can be found on the product label (illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 attached.)

If visualization of active pneumothorax is not needed, keep the affected Express chest drains and set up without water. Use the Express chest drain as intended by replacing the sterile water syringe provided with the drain with a new syringe filled with sterile water using aseptic technique.

Return the affected Express chest drains to Getinge/Atrium Medical Corporation via Return Good Authorization (RGA). If you have any affected Express 4000-100N and/or 4050-100N from the above-listed lots, this product can be returned. If you are a distributor who has shipped any affected products to customers, please forward this information to their attention for appropriate action.

In case you experience harm from this product, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve issues and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.

Company name: Getinge/Atrium Medical Corporation
Brand name: Atrium
Product recalled: Express Drains
Reason of the recall: Syringes provided with Express Drains could not be verified to be sterile.
FDA Recall date: January 04, 2024
