Reason for recall

Potential diff. in the length of the sheath tube and the sheath/probe. A diff. in length could lead to the base of the sheath/probe not being fully seated in the sheath tube which could result in the distal tip of the sheath melting. This could lead to a compromised insulation, leading to unintentional flow of electricity to the patient. The sheath/probe is packaged separately.
