  • Action
    Consignees were notified via an Urgent Medical Device Recall letter dated 9/17/08 asking them to immediately check their inventories and quarantine all affected product from the listed lots. Also, if the product had been further distributed, users were to be identified and notified of the recall. Products are to be held in quarantine until they are returned to Hologic. The response form must be completed and returned to fulfill regulatory requirements and document actions taken at your facility. Handpieces whose pouches had been opened were to be destroyed, as they could potentially shift during transport and expose dangerous sharp points to personnel handling the boxes. Upon receipt of the attached response form, Hologic will promptly send an equivalent amount of replacement product free of charge.
