Why it was recalled

Smiths Medical has become aware that the drawing on the Instructions for Use (IFU) on certain yellow striped CADD Administration Sets (part number 21-7339-24), incorrectly represent the actual filter size of the product. Although the text description on the IFU correctly identifies the product to include a 0.2 micron filter, the illustration on the IFU identifies the filter size as 2.0 microns.
