Plain-English summary
Windstone Medical Packaging, Inc. is recalling 128 units of Aligned Medical Solutions In House Ocular Pack (Model AMS12947A) with UDI B098AMS12947A0. Affected lot numbers are 192436, 192774, and 196582, distributed in Florida, Illinois, and California.
The saline solution included in these surgical kits cannot be guaranteed to remain sterile. Saline used in ocular surgery must be sterile to prevent bacterial and fungal infection. Non-sterile saline in surgical applications poses a significant risk of post-operative infection.
Facilities and medical professionals who received these kits should not use them for procedures. The saline should be discarded and replaced with a verified sterile alternative. Healthcare providers should contact patients who may have received procedures using these kits and advise them to monitor for signs of post-operative infection.
