There is a potential for flaking metal and/or brown spots on the hemostats sold as individual units or packaged in the kits
Medical Action Industries is recalling its Minor Procedure Tray (REF 61214) because some units may have flaking metal or brown spots on the hemostats. This could cause injury during medical procedures if the metal flakes off and enters the patient.
The hemostats (surgical clamps) in the tray may develop flaking metal or brown spots due to manufacturing defects. If metal flakes off during use, it could potentially enter the patient's body and cause injury.
Medical professionals using the Minor Procedure Tray for minor procedures are most at risk. Patients undergoing procedures with this tray could be affected if metal flakes cause injury.
