Busse Hospital Disposables is recalling Single Shot Epidural Trays because swab components from Professional Disposables International were manufactured with unvalidated test methods.
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: Class II medical device recall involving swabs used in invasive epidural procedures where manufacturing test method validation is uncertain. No illnesses or injuries have been reported, but the potential for contamination in high-risk injection supplies creates a high-risk situation.
Plain-English summary
Busse Hospital Disposables, Inc. is recalling Single Shot Epidural Trays, Catalog Number 6797R2.
