Medline recalls surgical convenience kits where outer packaging isn't sterile, risking contamination during procedures. Affected kits include Hand Packs and Shoulder Suspension models with specific reorder numbers.
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 convenience kits because the outer packaging isn't sterile. This means only the contents inside the wrapping are sterile, which could lead to contamination during medical procedures.
The kits have a perforated bag that doesn't allow the outer packaging to stay sterile. Only the contents inside the wrapping are sterile, so if the outer layer isn't sterile, it could contaminate the surgical site during procedures.
Surgical professionals and hospitals using Medline surgical convenience kits with the listed reorder numbers are most at risk. Patients could be exposed to contamination if the kits are used without proper sterilization.
