What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (medical device) where the hazard is patient infection due to compromised sterility, but the source text does not report any specific injuries or illnesses, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.

Plain-English summary

Customed, Inc. is recalling 2,640 units of Gown Surgical Poly Reinforced XL X-Long (Catalog number 900-2565, Lot number 113036397). These products are used by medical staff to perform patient care procedures such as wound healing, suture removals, and wound irrigation.

The recall is being conducted because of compromised sterility, which is not limited to potentially damaged packaging. The FDA identified serious deficiencies in the manufacturing processes and uncontrolled and inadequate storage conditions. These factors increase the risk of contamination and may result in patient infection.

The affected products were distributed in the United States to Florida, New York, and Puerto Rico. Medical facilities and consumers should stop using these specific gowns and contact the recalling firm for instructions on return or disposal.
