Medline surgical procedure kits recalled for potential endotoxin contamination

Medline is recalling three custom surgical procedure kits due to non-sterile Codman Surgical Patties and Strips that pose a potential endotoxin contamination risk. The affected kits were distributed in the US, Canada, and the UAE.

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: This is a Class II medical device recall for a potential endotoxin contamination hazard in surgical kits used in invasive procedures. However, the contamination is described as potential rather than confirmed, and no illnesses or injuries are reported. Per the rubric, theoretical hazards without reported illness are scored at most as High.

Plain-English summary

Medline Industries, LP is recalling three custom medical procedure kits: PANENDOSCOPY-LF (REF DYNJ36728C), ENDOSCOPIC SINUS PACK (REF DYNJ40644A), and ENDO SINUS PACK (REF DYNJ66449). Approximately 1,086 units are affected.

The kits are being recalled because they contain non-sterile Codman Surgical Patties and Surgical Strips, which have the potential for endotoxin contamination.

The affected kits were distributed worldwide, including in the US, Canada, and the UAE. No illnesses or injuries have been reported to date in connection with these kits.
