International safety notice
A medical institution has notified us that the medical device was used in the "Blood purification device AcuFil Multi 55X-II" (trade name). During this time, we received a report that a "clamp opening/closing failure" occurred when the bubble clamp opened/closed. As a result of the investigation, the cause was that the wall thickness of the tube was large in some models, and the clamp was not sufficient to close the tube. We are conducting a voluntary recall as we have discovered that this is the case.
