Why these products were recalled

The surgical suture is non-sterile. Use could compromise the sterile field, increase risk of a surgical site infection, and increase break strength retention.

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.
