Edwards Lifesciences Rigid Suction Wand, sterile. Model numbers S033 and SPC2081. Product Usage: These suction catheters are typically used to remove fluid on the external surface of the heart during cardiac surgery and therefore there is little risk of intravascular involvement.

Reason: Edwards is recalling Suction Wand models SPC2081 and S033 because the plastic tip attached to the metal suction wand may become detached during routine use.
