Cook Introducers, Vein Sheaths Breaking & Harming Patients
Cook introducers are long, flexible, hollow devices that medical professionals insert into fragile blood vessels. They act as a tunnel, allowing catheters and other medical devices to pass through. They are commonly used in a wide range of medical procedures, including angioplasties, stent placements, and endovascular repairs. If Cook introducers break during use, they could potentially cause procedure delays, blockages, or blood vessel injuries.
