Why it was recalled

Neurovascular devices did not meet the minimum sample size required for endotoxin testing during manufacturing processes and are out of compliance with the AAMI ST72 standard, so these devices may exceed the acceptable limits of endotoxin levels; high levels of endotoxins may increase the risk of fever, shock and aseptic meningitis.
