Ad-Tech Electrode Connection System/Cables. Lightweight recall: Sterility Concern

Ad-Tech Electrode Connection System/Cables. Lightweight TECH-ATTACH Cable Models: 1. L-DCL-4DINX (4 contacts: 1 terminal block with 4 connectors each); 2. L-DCL-6DINX (6 contacts: 1 terminal block with 6 connectors each); 3. L-DCL-8DINX (8 contacts: 1 terminal block with 8 connectors each); 4. L-DCL-16BDINX (16 contacts: 1 terminal block with 16 connectors each); 5. L-DCL-32BDINX (32 contacts: 2 terminal blocks with 16 connectors each); 6. L-DCL-64BDINX (64 contacts: 4 terminal blocks with 16 connectors each). FO TECH-ATTACH Connection Cable model FO-LDC-4DINX (4 contacts: 1 terminal block with 4 connectors each). Tech-Attach: these cables require the use of an additional component - the connector block. The tail of the electrode is inserted into the block and the block in turn mates with the cable. A key-pin is used to ensure proper orientation. The cable terminated in EEG compatible connector sockets. Lightweight CABRIO Cable, model L-SRL-64BDINX (64 contacts: 4 terminal blocks with 16 connectors each). Cabrio cables are similar to Tech-Attach cables except that the block portion is pre-attached. The tail of an electrode is inserted into this portion which then hinges shut.

Why was Ad-Tech Electrode Connection System/Cables. Lightweight recalled?
