Microcare Medical recalls ultrasonic cleaner solutions due to contamination with harmful bacteria that could cause infections during medical procedures. Affected products include Good Vibrations, JorVet, and SpecClean solutions with specific model numbers and lots.
Contaminated equipment and packaging caused Klebsiella oxytoca, Enterobacter asburiae, Enterobacter bugandensis, pathogenic and opportunistic bacteria, to occur in ultrasonic detergent, which caused product bloating/leaking, and if used during medical/dental procedures could result in urinary tract, respiratory, bloodstream infections; workers handling contaminated product/instruments also at risk
Microcare Medical is recalling several ultrasonic cleaner solutions because they were contaminated with harmful bacteria that could lead to infections during medical or dental procedures. Using these products could put patients and healthcare workers at risk of urinary tract, respiratory, or bloodstream infections.
The recalled ultrasonic cleaner solutions were contaminated with pathogenic and opportunistic bacteria, including Klebsiella oxytoca and Enterobacter species. This contamination can cause the product to become bloated or leaky, and if used during medical procedures, it may lead to urinary tract, respiratory, or bloodstream infections in patients and healthcare workers.
Healthcare professionals and medical facilities using the recalled ultrasonic cleaner solutions are most at risk. Patients undergoing procedures with contaminated equipment could also face infections.
