Genesis STERRAD Reusable Rigid Sterilization Containers have not consistently met the requirements for aerosol challenge testing.
Carefusion is recalling Genesis half-length sterilization containers that didn't consistently pass aerosol testing. This could mean the containers might not properly seal during sterilization, risking contamination of medical equipment.
These containers failed aerosol challenge testing, which checks if they seal properly under pressure. If they don't seal well, medical equipment could become contaminated during sterilization cycles.
Healthcare facilities using these containers for medical sterilization are affected. Staff handling the containers during sterilization processes face the highest risk.
