Getinge/Maquet has issued a Class 1 recall (device correction) to inform users about important safety information for its VasoView HemoPro 2 Endoscopic Vessel Harvesting System (VH-4000 and VH-4001) due to complaints received for two failure modes experienced during use — a bent or detached heater wire, and silicone peeling or detaching from the jaws of the harvesting tool.

The [recall notice](https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/letters-health-care-providers/safety-and-availability-concerns-vasoview-hemopro-endoscopic-vessel-harvesting-systems-letter-health?ref=fdaweb.com) says that 254 complaints related to the bent or detached heater wire have been received, including four serious injuries. There have also been 126 complaints related to silicone peeling or detaching from the jaws of the harvesting tool during use. These included three serious injuries that required an additional incision during the procedure, it says.
