Medline recalls certain probe cover kits for ultrasound procedures due to potential inadequate barrier at seams. These kits may allow contaminants to enter during use, posing a risk of infection. Affected kits were distributed from December 2017 to May 2023.
Probe covers for use during diagnostic ultrasound procedures may have an inadequate barrier at the seams.
Medline is recalling specific probe cover kits used with ultrasound devices because the covers might have weak seams that could let contaminants get through. This could lead to infections during medical procedures if the covers are not properly sealed.
