Tissium Coaptium Connect nerve device recalled for shelf-life issue

Tissium SA is relabeling Coaptium Connect nerve repair devices (model NCOCO1575) because the labeled 36-month shelf life is not supported by real-time data. The devices will be relabeled with a 26-month shelf life. Using a device beyond its validated shelf life may cause it to break during surgery, which could require revision surgery.
