Plain-English summary
Avid Medical, Inc. is recalling 21,326 custom procedure trays that contain medical components used for minor and major patient surgeries. The recall is necessary because the trays contain one or more surgical gowns that were manufactured at locations that did not maintain proper environmental conditions. As a result, there is no assurance that the surgical gowns are sterile.
An inadequately sterilized surgical gown could compromise a sterile field and increase the risk of a surgical site infection. Additionally, due to the configuration of the trays, the recalled gowns may come into contact with other components within the tray, posing a risk of cross-contamination.
The affected trays were distributed to facilities in Arizona, California, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, Nevada, New York, Tennessee, Texas, Wisconsin, and Virginia. The recall covers multiple item and lot numbers with expiration dates ranging from February 1, 2020, to February 6, 2023. Healthcare facilities should stop using these trays and contact Avid Medical for instructions on how to return or dispose of the affected products.
