Medline recalls probe cover kits with sterile ultrasound gel that may have inadequate seams, risking contamination during diagnostic procedures. Affected kits sold from Dec 2017-May 2023.
Probe covers for use during diagnostic ultrasound procedures may have an inadequate barrier at the seams.
Medline is recalling probe cover kits used with ultrasound devices because the covers may have weak seams that could allow contaminants to enter during procedures. This poses a risk of infection or improper diagnosis if the covers are used without proper protection.
The probe covers may have inadequate barriers at the seams, which could allow contaminants to enter the ultrasound probe during procedures. This increases the risk of infection or improper diagnostic results if the covers are not properly sealed.
Healthcare professionals using these kits for diagnostic ultrasound procedures are most at risk. Patients undergoing imaging with these kits could face infection or inaccurate results.
Check for model numbers listed in the recall (e.g., DYNJ0149444M, CDS984944C) on the kit packaging. These kits were distributed by Medline between December 2017 and May 2023.
Look for model numbers on the kit packaging to confirm if it's affected (e.g., DYNJ0149444M, CDS984944C).
