Impact:
- The affected product is available to order through NHS Supply Chain. However, trusts are allocated a maximum daily quantity or “threshold” to ensure fair supply of available stock across the NHS.
- FSB658 is a consumable linked to KCI Medical’s capital equipment; therefore, alternatives are restricted.
