Why these products were recalled

Exactech, Inc. initiated a recall of Equinoxe Replicator Plates, Equinoxe Locking Screws, Equinoxe Compression Screw Kits, Equinoxe Fracture Adapter Tray Screws, and Octane-C Intervertebral fusion devices due to the firm determining that the device labeling identifies the affected parts as having a ten year shelf life; however, the packaging configuration that was used it qualified to a five year

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
