Insufficient documentation to support product sterility claims.
International Medsurg is recalling 60cc piston syringes that may not be sterile, which could lead to infections if used for medical procedures. This recall affects specific batch numbers produced between 2012 and 2017.
The syringes lack sufficient documentation to prove they are sterile. This means they might not be safe for medical use, potentially causing infections if used to inject or withdraw fluids from the body.
Healthcare professionals and patients using these syringes for medical procedures are affected. Those who have the specific lot numbers listed in the recall are most at risk of infection.
Check for the catalog number SY35060LL and lot numbers starting with 12-6780-x through 15-9963-x (2012-2017). These syringes come in boxes of 50, with 8 boxes per case.
Look for the lot number on the syringe packaging, which starts with a year (e.g., 12-6780-x) and ends with -x.
The recall is due to insufficient documentation supporting that the syringes are sterile, which could lead to infections if used for medical procedures.
Check the lot number on the packaging. If it matches the listed numbers, stop using the syringes and contact International Medsurg for guidance.
Yes, the syringes may not be sterile, which could cause infections during medical procedures. This is a low-risk hazard but requires careful handling.
