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: Scored 3 under the risk-of-harm criterion: undisclosed latex in a product labelled latex-free can trigger an allergic reaction, and no injuries are reported.
Plain-English summary
The NICO Myriad Illumination Pack is being recalled, covering product number NN-1000 (11g illumination sleeve and fiber) and NN-1001 (13g illumination sleeve and fiber).
Tape used to secure components within the packaging contains latex, despite the products being labelled as latex-free. Stryker states latex could potentially cause an allergic reaction.
The recall covers 39,148 units, including GTIN 00816744021009 for NN-1000, across lots including 37AC5163, 37AE9811, 37AJ1438, 37BJ0513 and 37CB3410. Distribution was worldwide, including nationwide in the United States and to Australia, Belgium, Canada, England, Ireland and Italy. The FDA has classified the action as Class II.
A latex-free label is exactly what a latex-allergic patient or clinician relies on. The enforcement record reports no injuries. Facilities should quarantine affected lots and follow Stryker's instructions.
