  • Causa
    Atrium medical has become aware that if the product is exposed to excessive humidity for an extended period of time, the increased humidity occurring inside the pouch can potentially cause the coating on the mesh to strongly adhere to the inner handling sleeve. this becomes evident if:- it becomes difficult to peel the mesh from the handling sleeve, or- the yellow coating material separating the mesh is retained on the clear plastic liner.
  • Acción
    Atrium Medical is providing users with updated Instructions for Use (IFU) which include an additional warning and handling information to ensure the device is not used if the coating material separates from the mesh. The storage requirements have also been added to the product labels.
