Official wording

Reason: A smaller open suction catheter, the 8 Fr Suction Catheter, may have been packed within the kit instead of the required 14 Fr Suction Catheter. Use of the smaller size catheter may result in hypoxia and/or respiratory failure related to partial or full airway obstruction. Airway obstruction may require immediate emergent medical intervention to prevent respiratory failure or death. Other potential outcomes include prolonged procedure, airway irritation, or prolonged dyspnea.
