Stryker recalls Nasopore 4cm nasal dressings with potential sterility seal breaches. If the seal shows a bubble, the product may not be sterile and could cause infection.
There is a potential for blister seals on the product to present a bubble on the seal area of the packaging. This seal acts as a sterile barrier and, in this event, indicates that the sterility seal has been breached.

The product's sterility seal is designed to keep the dressing free from contamination. If the seal shows a bubble, it means the seal has been breached, which could allow bacteria to enter and cause infection.
