International safety notice

We have received a report from a medical institution that the effective length of the product in question is shorter than the indicated standard. As a result of our investigation, we found that for some products with serial numbers, the packaging labeling standard incorrectly indicated a guide wire of 150 cm for a product with an effective length of 180 cm. As it was discovered that the product was packaged, we will carry out a voluntary recall of the product with the relevant serial number.
