Medline recalls surgical tracheostomy trays with non-sterile outer packaging. Only inner contents are sterile, risking infection during procedures.
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 is recalling surgical tracheostomy trays that have a perforated outer bag. This means the outer packaging isn't sterile, so only the contents inside the bag are sterile. Using these trays could lead to infections during medical procedures.
The outer bag of the surgical tray has a perforation, so it cannot maintain sterility. Only the contents inside the bag are sterile. This means the outer packaging may become contaminated during use, increasing infection risk during medical procedures.
Healthcare professionals using these surgical trays for tracheostomy procedures are most at risk. Patients undergoing such procedures could face infection if the trays are used without proper sterile handling.
