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: FDA Class II recall of a risk-of-harm product where no illnesses or injuries have been reported. Endotoxin contamination in cerebrospinal fluid-contacting devices poses a genuine safety hazard to the central nervous system, meeting the High severity criterion for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.
Plain-English summary
Baxter Healthcare Corporation is recalling certain Supple Peri-Guard Repair Patch units (product codes PC0404SNBIO, PC0608NSBIO, PC0814SNBIO, PC1016SNBIO) due to endotoxin contamination risk. The recall affects 9,549 units distributed to facilities in Connecticut, Virginia, Texas, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and several countries including Austria, Finland, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.
