3M Steri-Drape Surgical Drapes Recalled Due to Adhesive Liner Defect

3M is recalling Steri-Drape Surgical Drapes because the liner on the adhesive component is difficult to remove without damaging the product, potentially rendering it unusable.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall involving a manufacturing defect that compromises product functionality. No injuries or illnesses are reported in the source. The hazard is functional (potential product unusability) rather than directly causing harm, warranting Score 2 (Moderate) per the rubric criteria for manufacturing defects with no reported adverse events.
