Why these products were recalled

Specific lots of multiple sterile medical devices may have a breach in the sterile seal. A breach in the packaging seal could lead to loss of sterility of the device.

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.
