Robotic thoracic and cardiac kits recalled over leaking suction irrigators

Medline is recalling 96 units of procedure convenience kits containing Stryker Strykeflow 2 Suction Irrigators, which can leak or emit vaporized saline during use.

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: Scored 2 because the record cites leakage and vapour emission from a kit component with no stated patient harm or reported injury.

Plain-English summary

Medline medical procedure convenience kits are being recalled by Medline Industries, LP, covering Thoracic Robotics (REF DYNJ908777B) and Cardiac Robotic WHC Kit-LF (REF DYNJ911359).

The kits contain Stryker's Strykeflow 2 Suction Irrigators. The record states that due to a change in design in 2024, irrigation solution is able to travel to the handpiece and battery pack during use of the Strykeflow 2 Suction Irrigator, and that this design change has caused some devices to leak and/or emit vaporized saline, which can resemble smoke, during use.

The record lists 96 units, with REF numbers, UDI/DI codes and lot numbers recorded in the enforcement record. Distribution was nationwide in the United States. The FDA has classified the action as Class II.

The record describes leakage and vapour emission and states no further consequence or reported injuries. Facilities should quarantine affected kits and follow Medline's instructions.
