Smiths Medical recalls 15mm Double Swivel Connectors with potential seal integrity issues in sterile packaging. Affected models include REF 100/255/150 variants. No remedy specified in official notice.
Uncertainty in the seal integrity of the sterile packaging.
Smiths Medical is recalling certain 15mm Double Swivel Connectors due to uncertainty in the seal integrity of their sterile packaging. This could potentially compromise the product's sterility during use, though no specific injury risk is mentioned in the recall notice.
The sterile packaging for these medical connectors may not seal properly, which could lead to contamination. This risk exists because the packaging is designed to maintain sterility during use, but the seal integrity is uncertain.
Healthcare professionals using these connectors for medical procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving treatments through these connectors may be affected if the packaging seal fails.
Check for model references: REF 100/255/150, REF 100/255/150JP, or REF 100/255/150 JS. Look for specific lot numbers listed in the recall notice.
