Why these products were recalled

RENASYS EZ Canisters exhibiting visible evidence of deformation of the inlet port on the canister lid.

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.
