Report-date coverage

Known gap: openFDA describes 2004-present coverage, but the current export has no report-date records in this interval.

event_date_initiated coverage
June 01, 1997–June 30, 2026
Enforcement coverage uses report dates; product initiation dates can precede those bounds. Device-enrichment coverage uses FDA event_date_initiated.
Product dates, classifications, firms, and source wording remain attached to their individual rows.

PreludeEASE Hydrophilic Sheath Introducer Dilator The Merit PreludeEASE Hydrophilic Sheath Introducer is intended to provide access and facilitate the percutaneous introduction of various devices into veins and/or arteries, including but not limited to the radial artery, while maintaining hemostasis for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The access needle with inner metal needle and outer plastic cannula is used to gain access to the vein or artery for placement of guide wires
Recalling dilators included with the 6F PreludeEASE Hydrophilic Sheath Introducer because the dilator tips were manufactured with an undersized inner diameter and therefore will not allow passage of an 0.021 (0.53 mm) guide wire.
