Medline Arterial Irrigation Bundles Recalled Due to Sterility Risk
Medline Industries recalls arterial irrigation bundles due to potential loss of sterility in Nurse Assist components, which could deliver non-sterile solutions for medical procedures.
What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I classification mandates a minimum severity score of 4. Non-sterile medical irrigation solutions used in arterial access procedures present significant risk for infection and patient harm, though no illnesses are reported in the source.
