Depuy recalls specific ATTUNE Revision Hinge Femoral RT SZ 5 CEM implants due to potential sterility compromise from packaging adhesion. Affected units have part number 150450205 and lot number 1006444.
The external sterile packaging was found adhered to the internal sterile packaging, potentially compromising sterility.
Depuy is recalling a specific type of hip implant (ATTUNE Revision Hinge Femoral RT SZ 5 CEM) because the sterile packaging might not be properly separated, risking infection during surgery. This is a serious issue for patients who received this implant.
The external sterile packaging sticks to the internal sterile packaging, which could lead to contamination during surgery. This might cause infections in patients who receive the implant.
Patients who received this specific hip implant during surgery between 2023 and 2035 are affected. Surgeons and hospitals using this implant are most at risk of infection.
Check for part number 150450205 and lot number 1006444 on the packaging. The expiration date is October 31, 2035.
