Customed Tummy Tuck Pack Recalled for Sterility and Contamination Risks

Customed, Inc. is recalling 18 Tummy Tuck Packs due to compromised sterility and manufacturing deficiencies that may cause patient infection.

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 source text explicitly states that the condition 'may result in patient infection' and cites 'serious deficiencies' in manufacturing and storage. This aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or high-risk contamination scenarios that pose a serious health threat, warranting a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Customed, Inc. is recalling 18 units of the Tummy Tuck Pack, Catalog #900-3026, Lot 140714520. This medical device is used by medical staff to perform patient care procedures such as wound healing, suture removals, and wound irrigation.

The recall was initiated because of significant compromised sterility, which is not limited to potentially damaged packaging. Serious deficiencies in manufacturing processes and uncontrolled, inadequate storage conditions 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 who have this product should stop using it and contact the recalling firm for instructions on return or disposal.
