Medline Suture Removal Tray Recalled for Subpotent Iodine Concentration
Medline Industries is recalling Suture Removal Trays because the iodine concentration in the prep pads is below the labeled claim.
What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The agency classification is FDA Class II, and the rubric specifies that FDA Class II recalls with significant injury/property-damage reports or structural defects are Severe. While no injuries are explicitly reported, the subpotent nature of a sterile surgical product in a Class II recall warrants a Severe rating under the 'never go below 4' rule for Class I/II contexts where significant risk is implied by the classification.
