Customed Basic Pack W/Out Gown Recalled for Sterility Compromise

Customed, Inc. is recalling 242 units of Basic Pack W/Out Gown due to compromised sterility and manufacturing deficiencies that may result in 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 deficiencies 'may result in patient infection,' which constitutes a significant injury risk. This aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or high-risk medical device defects, warranting a score of 4.
