  • Cause
    Risk of incorrect lumen selection. the extension lumen may have the wrong exit (proximal, medial, distal) and size printed on it, although the hub colour coding remains correct. for example the distal lumen may be printed with the words ‘medial 18 ga’ instead of ‘distal 16ga’. arrow international issued a second field safety notice (fsn) dated 20 june 2014, which informed users of an extension to their original fsn dated 15 may 2014. this extension now includes affected devices in procedure packs. this medical device alert is an update to mda/2014/022 issued on 12 june 2014. clinicians and nursing staff may rely on the printed information on the catheter lumens to identify them and to select the appropriate lumen to deliver blood and other fluids. misprinted lumens could lead to a range of problems, if used inappropriately.
  • Action
    Identify all additional affected stock using Appendix 2 of the FSN. NHS supply chain codes are detailed below. Ensure that all relevant clinicians and nursing staff are aware of this issue and receive a copy of the Arrow International second FSN. Be guided by Arrow’s hub colour coding, not by what is printed on the lumen. Arrow’s hub colour coding is: White = proximal lumen = 18 GA Grey = medial lumen 1 = 14 GA Blue = medial lumen 2 = 18 GA Brown = distal lumen = 16 GA Report any cases of misprinted lumens to MHRA.
