Identified curing issues with the silicone during the needles manufacturing process.
Ethicon is recalling a specific type of surgical suture (PDSII VIO 30IN) because of potential silicone curing problems during production. This could affect the suture's safety and performance during medical procedures.
The suture's silicone may not cure properly during manufacturing, which could lead to structural weaknesses. This might cause the suture to fail during use, potentially causing complications in medical procedures.
Surgical professionals and patients who use the recalled suture product are affected. The risk is highest for those using the suture in procedures where the silicone integrity is critical.
