    Abbvie is issuing an urgent field correction notification due to an increased number of reports of disconnections of the abbvie 20fr peg tube from the y-connectors.
  • Action
    The firm sent an URGENT: MEDICAL DEVICE FIELD CORRECTION NOTIFICATION AbbVie PEG Kit 20 FR to affected customers describing the reason for the notification. The letter asks affected customers to forward this letter to all Movement Disorder Specialists and physicians (e.g. GIs, IRs, and surgeons) that place PEG- J Tubes within your facility. The letter describes actions to be taken for patients still using the AbbVie PEG 20FR Tube. The letter requests user facilities to continue to monitor the performance of the Tube. The firm states that there is no need to replace the AbbVie PEG 20FR Tube if it is functioning as expected and maintaining a viable connection with the Y-Connector. The letter provides the following instructions when establishing a connection between Abbvie PEG 20FR Tube with the 20FR Y-connector, always refer to AbbVie J Intestinal Tube 9 FR to PEG 15 and 20 FR Instructions for Use for 62918-001.
