Cardinal Health recalls 16G x 1-1/2" Monoject needles due to potential sterility barrier compromise from manufacturing defects. Affected items have specific lot numbers and item codes.
Manufacturing defect was found for the cartridge component, which could compromise the sterility barrier of the product
Cardinal Health is recalling 16-gauge, 1-1/2-inch hypodermic needles that may have manufacturing defects compromising their sterility barrier. This could lead to infections if the needles are used without proper sterility.
The needles may have a manufacturing defect that weakens the sterility barrier. This could allow contaminants to enter the needle during use, increasing infection risk.
People who own or use the recalled needles for medical injections are affected. Those with compromised sterility barriers due to the defect are at higher risk.
Check for the item code 8881200045 and lot number 905613 on the needle packaging. The product is a 16-gauge, 1-1/2-inch hypodermic needle.
