International safety notice

We have received multiple reports of the dilator being scraped off when it was set in the sheath. As a result, the dilator tube came into contact with the cross section of the braided wire exposed at the curved outer side hole of the sheath tube. Since we have discovered that the product has been scratched, we will voluntarily recall products that may cause similar problems.
