Product Description

CADD Administration Sets with Flow Stop, Product Reorder No: 21-7321-01, 21-7321-24, 21-7322-01, 21-7322-24, 21-7323-24, 21-7324-01, 21-7324-24, 21-7333-24, 21-7336-01, 21-7336-24, 21-7339-01, 21-7339-24, 21-7359-01, 21-7359-24, 21-7383-01, 21-7383-24, 21-7390-01, 21-7390-24, 21-7391-01, 21-7391-24, 21-7394-01, 21-7394-24, 21-7395-24. The CADD Medication Cassette Reservoirs with Flow Stop are a modification to the current CADD Medication Cassette Reservoirs. The reservoirs will incorporate a set-based free flow protection component (i.e. Flow Stop) that is designed to occlude the tube if the reservoirs are accidentally placed onto the pump incorrectly or become detached from the pump. The Flow Stop will be located on the reservoir housing, which is attached to the pump. The reservoir will be provided to the user in an open state. Before the reservoir can be attached to the pump, the blue "CLIP" must be removed to activate the Flow Stop. However, after attaching the reservoir to the pump, the user can still remove the reservoir from the pump and prime it by holding the Flow Stop in the open position.

Reason for Recall

Smiths Medical became aware that under delivery of medication may occur on CADD Administration Sets with Flow Stop.

Frequently Asked Questions

Contact your healthcare provider and the device manufacturer immediately. Check whether your specific model number and lot number are included in the recall scope. For external devices, stop using the affected product and arrange a replacement. For implanted devices, do not panic — removal is typically not required unless the risk assessment clearly indicates it. Your physician will guide you based on your individual clinical situation and the FDA's recommended actions. Report any adverse effects you may have experienced to FDA MedWatch at 1-800-FDA-1088.

Class I recalls indicate a reasonable probability of serious adverse health consequences or death from the defect. Class II recalls involve products that may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where serious consequences are remote. Class III recalls cover products not likely to cause any adverse health consequences, typically involving technical regulatory violations. The classification guides urgency — Class I recalls require immediate action, while Class III may simply involve returning a product or acknowledging a labeling change. Always read the specific recall notice for recommended patient actions.

Report problems with medical devices to the FDA through MedWatch at 1-800-FDA-1088 or online at FDA.gov/safety/medwatch. Healthcare facilities are required by law to report device-related serious injuries and deaths. Patients and consumers can also report voluntarily. Include the device name, manufacturer, model number, and a description of the problem and any patient outcome. Reports from patients and clinicians help the FDA identify emerging safety signals and may trigger investigations that lead to recalls of dangerous devices.

What Should You Do?

Stop using this device if you are affected by this recall. Contact your healthcare provider and the manufacturer immediately for guidance. Report adverse events to FDA MedWatch.
