This recall addresses the Fast-Cath Hemostasis Introducer with a hemostatic valve, a medical device registered under Certificate No.: 20143035569.

This manufacturing non-conformance represents a potential product quality concern requiring immediate corrective action. The NMPA serves as the overseeing regulatory authority for this action; however, specific inspection dates leading to this recall are not detailed within the document.

A Class III recall typically indicates that the use of or exposure to the affected product is not likely to cause serious adverse health consequences. St. Jude Medical, as the manufacturer, is taking responsibility by voluntarily withdrawing the affected units from distribution. The required actions involve the removal of these devices from the market.
