Integra CUSA Clarity Sterilization Tray Recall for Drying Time Error
Integra LifeSciences is recalling CUSA Clarity 36 kHz Sterilization Trays because the manual lists a 30-minute drying time, but 40 minutes are required for complete drying.
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 labeling error in the operator's manual regarding drying times. While the agency classification is Class II, the specific hazard is a documentation error that does not explicitly report hospitalizations or significant injuries, fitting the 'Moderate' criteria for minor labeling errors or low-risk issues.
Plain-English summary
Integra LifeSciences Corp. is recalling the C7000 - CUSA Clarity Ultrasonic Tissue Ablation System, specifically the 36 kHz Sterilization Tray (C7136 Rev C / 72904491 Rev A). The recall is due to a discrepancy in the CUSA Clarity Operators manual regarding the minimum dry time for the 36 kHz Sterilization Tray and components.
The manual currently states that 30 minutes is the minimum dry time for a 30-minute drying cycle. However, the system does not meet the Dry Time Criteria for this duration, as 40 minutes are required for complete drying. This recall is classified as Class II by the FDA.
The affected products were distributed in the United States and internationally, including in Singapore, Mexico, Canada, Japan, Australia, Colombia, Thailand, and Hong Kong. Users should refer to the updated instructions or contact the manufacturer for guidance on the correct drying time to ensure proper sterilization.
