Medline Industries recalls surgical convenience kits with perforated bags that may allow non-sterile materials to contaminate the kit's contents. Affected kits include chest tube insertion trays, vasectomy kits, and laceration trays with specific reorder numbers and lots.
The recall is due to the perforated bag not allowing for outside of the kit wrapping to be sterile, therefore, only the contents inside the kits wrapping are sterile.
Medline Industries is recalling surgical convenience kits because the perforated bag doesn't keep the outside wrapping sterile. This means only the contents inside the wrapping are sterile, which could lead to infections if the kit is used improperly. Patients and medical staff using these kits should stop using them immediately to avoid contamination risks.
The perforated bag in the kit's packaging allows non-sterile materials to come into contact with the kit's contents. This means that the wrapping around the kit may not stay sterile, increasing the risk of infection during medical procedures if the kit is used without proper sterilization.
Medical professionals and patients who use the recalled surgical convenience kits for procedures like laceration repairs, chest tube insertions, or vasectomies are at risk. Those using the kits with the listed reorder numbers and lots are most affected.
Check for surgical convenience kits labeled with specific reorder numbers: CVI2105, MNS11975, SUT11670, and other numbers listed in the recall. Look for lot numbers like 22HMD248, 22HMD116, or 22HMB913 on the packaging.
