CooperSurgical INCA neonatal nasal CPAP tubing recalled for loose connection risk
What this means
CooperSurgical's INCA neonatal nasal CPAP replacement tubing sets may develop a loose connection between the flexible tubing and nasal cannula during assembly or use. A loose connection can cause loss of CPAP pressure, potentially reducing treatment effectiveness and oxygen delivery to the infant until the connection is restored.
- Check your INCA CPAP tubing for model numbers 44-0712, 44-0707, 44-0709, or 44-0715 and the lot codes listed in the recall notice.
- Inspect the connection between the tubing and nasal cannula for tightness before each use.
- Contact CooperSurgical or your equipment supplier immediately if you have affected units or have questions about replacement.
The agency's original wording
Potential to exhibit a loose connection between the flexible tubing and the nasal cannula, during assembly or while in use, which may result in loss of CPAP pressure, possibly reducing the effectiveness of treatment and lead to decreased oxygenation until connection is restored.
