Why it was recalled
Supplier changes resulted in a fit issue with the Contrast Flow Control Valve (CFCV) interface on the Avanta Injector System. Multiple customer reports indicate that the stopcock cannot be reliably engaged with the CFCV snap interface. In instances where engagement is achieved through applied force, the connection is unstable, and the stopcock may disengage before or during contrast injection, leading to procedure interruption.
