Since that time additional testing has continued and the manufacturer has made the decision to distribute a recall letter to all customers that have a procedure pack in their possession that may contain the affected product and inform them of the recall expansion. Additionally the manufacturer has confirmed that the supplier will use a new heat treatment vendor for which there is a validated heat treatment process. 31/07/2015 - Identified that LOT 11E035 was not previous included in the recall letters associated with this recall.
