Plain-English summary

Stradis Medical, LLC (doing business as Stradis Healthcare) is recalling 80 Henry Schein single-shot epidural kits (Item No. 570-3089) distributed in the United States and Canada. The recall was initiated due to manufacturing conditions that may result in the outer bag being incompletely sealed.

The incomplete sealing of the outer bag may result in a breach of the kit's sterility. Compromised sterility in medical devices used for invasive procedures could potentially expose patients to infection risk during epidural administration.

Affected kits have the UDI/DI (case) H65857030891, UDI/DI (kit) M75257030890, and Serial/Lot Number 22251491690. Healthcare providers should stop using affected units immediately and contact Stradis Medical for instructions regarding return or replacement of the recalled kits.
