International Medsurg recalls 3CC L/L Piston Syringes due to insufficient documentation supporting sterility claims. Affected units include specific lot numbers from 2012-2017. Consumers should check their syringes for listed lot numbers and contact the company for details.
Insufficient documentation to support product sterility claims.
International Medsurg is recalling 3CC L/L Piston Syringes because the products lack proper documentation to prove they are sterile. This could lead to infections if used for medical procedures. Affected units have specific lot numbers from 2012 to 2017.
The syringes were manufactured without adequate documentation to confirm they are sterile. This means there is a risk of contamination and infection if the syringes are used for medical procedures without proper sterility.
Healthcare professionals and patients using these syringes for medical procedures are affected. Those with syringes matching the listed lot numbers are most at risk.
Check for the product name 'Piston Syringe, 3 CC L/L, 100 per box' with lot numbers starting with 12-6780-x through 15-9963-x (2012-2017).
Look for the lot number on the syringe packaging, which starts with a year (e.g., 12-6780-x) and ends with 'x' for the specific release.
The recall is due to insufficient documentation supporting sterility claims, which could lead to contamination and infection if used for medical procedures.
Check the lot number on the packaging; affected units have specific lot numbers from 2012-2017 listed in the recall notice.
Contact International Medsurg directly to confirm your syringe's lot number and get instructions on next steps.
