Product Description

SwishPlus Implant 5.7mmD x 8mmL, SBM 6.5mmD Platform, Part Number 925708

Reason for Recall

Due to a complaint received and internal investigation it was determined that implant vials were distributed with incorrect color coded vials and caps. The part/lot numbers were correct, the customer received the product they ordered, however the color on the vial label and cap labels were incorrect.Specifically, the color coded vial and cap does not match the implant size described on the vial. As a result of the incorrect color on the vial and cap, the surgeon may not be certain if the implant received was the correct size. This could result in a delay in surgery, risk of infection if the surgical site has to be closed up and a second round of anesthesia.

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.
