Sklar Instruments recalls ECONO STERILE vein hook kits (models 96-4020M to 96-4022M) due to packaging issues that may breach sterile barriers. Affected kits have specific lot codes and were sold for venous procedures.
Reports of various packaging issues that may result in a breach of the sterile barrier.
Sklar Instruments is recalling three types of ECONO STERILE vein hook kits because packaging problems could break the sterile seal. This risk means the kits might not be safe for medical procedures if the sterile barrier is compromised.
The packaging may not seal properly, leading to a breach in the sterile barrier. This could allow contamination during medical procedures, potentially causing infections if the kit is used without a clean seal.
Healthcare professionals using these kits for venous procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving procedures with these kits could be exposed to infection if the sterile barrier is breached.
Check for model numbers 96-4020M, 96-4021M, or 96-4022M on the kit. Affected kits have lot codes SK-125 or SK-128 and were sold for venous procedures.
Look for model numbers 96-4020M, 96-4021M, or 96-4022M and lot codes SK-125 or SK-128.
The recall states packaging issues may breach the sterile barrier, so they should not be used until the recall is addressed.
The recall does not specify a remedy, so check with Sklar Instruments for guidance.
These kits are for venous procedures.
