Product

Bard Conquest 40 PTA Dilation Catheter, 8mm X 20mm x 75cm (CQF7582), 8mm x 40mm x 75cm (CQF7584); Recommended Guidewire .035"; Recommended Introducer 6F; Nominal Pressure 8atm, Rated Burst Pressure 40atm; Syringe inflation 1cc; UDI: (01)00801741060533(17)220228(10)REDQ3444

Reason for recall

The catheter packaging incorrectly listed the balloon size as 8mm X 20mm instead of the intended size 8mm X 40mm. If undetected, the user will advance the longer than expected balloon to the lesion. The potential exists that upon inflation, non-diseased vessel, kidney or sections of the AV dialysis fistulae may be dilated, potentially causing a varying degree of injury. This may require additional medical or surgical intervention.
