Abbott Medical recalls Radiofrequency Grounding Pads with incorrect release liner orientation that may cause uneven heating during use. Affected units have specific batch numbers and UDI codes.
Affected lots were manufactured with the protective release liner in an incorrect orientation. When attempting to remove this disposable release liner, a clear film may be left on the grounding pad which may interfere with patient skin contact and lead to uneven heating.
Abbott Medical is recalling radiofrequency grounding pads that were manufactured with the protective release liner in the wrong orientation. This could leave a film on the pad that interferes with skin contact and causes uneven heating during medical procedures.
The release liner is installed incorrectly during manufacturing, which can leave a thin film on the pad when removed. This film may prevent proper skin contact with the patient's body, causing uneven heating during medical treatments.
Healthcare professionals using the radiofrequency grounding pads for medical procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving treatments with these pads may experience uneven heating if the release liner is improperly removed.
Check for the product name 'Radiofrequency Grounding Pad' with the reference code RF-DGP-L. Affected units have UDI code 05415067028914 and batch numbers 810319004, 810319005, or 810319021.
Verify the UDI code (05415067028914) and batch numbers (810319004, 810319005, 810319021) on the product label.
