Carefusion recalls Genesis mid-length sterilization containers that failed aerosol challenge testing. These containers may not meet safety standards for sterilization processes.
Genesis STERRAD Reusable Rigid Sterilization Containers have not consistently met the requirements for aerosol challenge testing.
Carefusion is recalling Genesis mid-length sterilization containers that did not consistently pass aerosol challenge testing. This means the containers might not meet safety standards for sterilization processes, potentially affecting medical procedures.
These containers failed aerosol challenge testing, meaning they may not properly seal during sterilization. This could lead to contamination if the containers do not maintain sterility during the process.
Healthcare facilities using these containers for medical sterilization are likely affected. Staff handling these containers during sterilization processes are at the highest risk.
Check for the model: Genesis mid-length container 19X12" (48.3 X 30.5CM) 8" (20.3CM) deep. The product was sold with UDI/DI number 10885403019203 across all lots.
