Has Richard Wolf Medical Instruments Corp. had a recall?

openFDA lists 12 recall records naming this company across its whole history. A recall record covers one firm's corrective action and may span many device lots.

  • Z-1957-2019Class IITerminatedHIH

    E-Line Cutting Electrode package 8416.0305 contains E-Line Hook Electrode 8416.09 instead of E-Line Cutting Electrode 8416.03.

  • Z-2608-2016Class IITerminatedHHI

    The distal end of the Conical portio adapter (acorn) is composed of a small cap (head) that partially sits inside a hollow shaft (tube). These two parts are welded together to create one piece. In the impacted batches of product, the weld was improperly performed. As a result, the two pieces are not properly joined. This potential failure can result in the separation of the two pieces. The possible separation of these two components presents a potential risk to patients.

  • Z-1188-2016Class IITerminatedFWE

    Supplier of the "VESA 75 / 100 adaptation with rotation", which is part of their monitor mounts and support arms may be missing riveting.

  • Z-0789-2016Class IITerminatedHRX

    Weak weld in the reusable rotary blade/abrader (burr) may result in inner part breaks at the distal or proximal end making the product dysfunctional.

  • Z-0790-2016Class IITerminatedHRX

    Weak weld in the reusable rotary blade/abrader (burr) may result in inner part breaks at the distal or proximal end making the product dysfunctional.

Showing the 5 most recently initiated of 12.

Recall class comes from openFDA's enforcement endpoint, which does not carry every recall — where it is missing, none is shown rather than guessed. Recall class I is the most serious kind of recall; device class I is the least risky kind of device, and the two are never mixed here.
