Medline recalls knee surgery kits with Zimmer Biomet mixing bowls and spatulas that may cause sterility breaches, requiring replacement to prevent infection risks during surgery.

Medline is recalling knee surgery kits that include Zimmer Biomet mixing bowls and spatulas because of seal issues that could lead to sterility breaches. This risk means the kits might need to be replaced to avoid infection during surgery.
The kits have seal nonconformities that could breach sterility, meaning the surgical tools might not be properly sealed. This could lead to using non-sterile tools during surgery, though the health consequences are minor and only involve extending surgery time to find a replacement device.
Surgical teams using Medline's knee surgery kits with Zimmer Biomet mixing bowls and spatulas are affected. The risk is low for most users since the issue only causes minor delays in finding a replacement device.
