Instructions included: (1) Discontinue use of the affected product. Check all inventory locations within their institution for the affected product and immediately destroy all remaining product in their possession. A list of the components and their material makeup are provided so the consignee can have them disposed of according to their local facility's process; (2) Share the notification with all users of the affected product within their facility network to ensure they are also aware of the recall; (3) If the product was purchased from a distributor, the consignee is to contact the distributor directly for further instructions and credit resolution; (4) Complete the attached Customer Response Form and return it to the BD contact noted on the form.
