The affected products, bearing Registration Certificate No. 20143455621, involve six distinct items, with detailed specifications and batch information provided in an accompanying Medical Device Recall Event Report Form. This recall falls under the regulatory oversight of the NMPA, which hosts the official announcement, reflecting a commitment to medical device safety and quality assurance within the Chinese market. Baxter's proactive measure aims to address the reported performance issue and ensure the reliability of its medical supplies. The recall notification was formally issued as Shanghai Food and Drug Administration Medical Device Recall 2019-145.
