Products distributed as sterile may not have been adequately sterilized
Zavation is recalling 10-gauge cement delivery cannulas used in spinal and orthopedic procedures because some may not have been properly sterilized. This could lead to infections or other health risks if the cannulas are used without being fully sterile.
The cannulas may not have been adequately sterilized during manufacturing, which could lead to infections or other health issues if used in medical procedures. This is a risk specific to sterile surgical environments where contamination could harm patients.
