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: The FDA has classified this as a Class I recall due to the potential lack of sterility in irrigation solutions. Although no reported illnesses or deaths are documented in the recall notice, the potential for infection from non-sterile irrigation solutions in medical procedures justifies the Severe rating.

Medline Industries, LP has issued a recall of 279 units of irrigation and saline kits, trays, and packs due to issues with the components used to manufacture them. The recall affects three product lines: D&C CDS (REF CDS983911J), D&C PACK (REF DYNJ67214F), and D&C PACK (REF DYNJ67214G). These products were manufactured using specific lots of Nurse Assist components, including 0.9% Sodium Chloride Irrigation USP, Sterile Water for Irrigation USP, and Saline Flush Syringe.
