Aesculap recalls sterile disposable fleece drapes (product code GA414) due to unverified packaging seals risking contamination. Affected units include specific lot numbers and shipping units.
Packaging seal integrity not validated resulting in a lack of sterility assurance.
Aesculap is recalling sterile disposable fleece drapes (product code GA414) because the packaging seals weren't properly validated, which could lead to contamination during medical procedures. This affects surgical drapes used in hospitals and clinics.
The packaging seals weren't validated to ensure sterility, meaning the drapes might not be sterile when opened. This could lead to infections if used in medical procedures where sterility is critical.
Healthcare facilities using these drapes for surgeries or procedures are most at risk. Patients and medical staff could face contamination if the drapes are used without proper sterility.
Check for product code GA414, individually packaged drapes with 50 pieces per shipping unit. Lot numbers include 551953371, 52024524, 52097698, 52172460, 52249972, and 52340448.
