What happened

Merit Medical Systems, Inc. is recalling PreludeSYNC DISTAL Radial Compression Devices (models SDRB-REG-LT and SDRB-REG-RT) because some of the inflatable balloons may break or burst during sterilization. This defect can cause air leakage and prevent the device from maintaining proper pressure and compression. As a result, patients may experience bleeding or experience delays in treatment due to lack of hemostasis (inability to stop bleeding).

The recall affects 1,932 devices distributed across the United States and multiple countries including Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and others. The defect is likely to be identified by clinicians either through visual inspection before use or when attempting to inflate the balloon. The source document does not specify what action affected consumers should take regarding this recall.
