Medline recalls Probe Cover Kits (model DYND41472) with potential inadequate seam barriers during ultrasound procedures. These kits may increase infection risk if used improperly. Affected units 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 Probe Cover Kits that may have weak seams, increasing infection risk during ultrasound procedures. This is important because improper use could lead to infections if the covers fail to protect the skin.
The probe covers may have inadequate barriers at the seams, which could allow bacteria to enter the skin during ultrasound procedures. This increases the risk of infection if the covers fail to maintain a proper seal.
Healthcare professionals using these kits for ultrasound procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving ultrasound services using the recalled kits could also be affected.
