Plain-English summary
Avid Medical, Inc. is recalling 628 custom procedure trays containing medical components used for minor and major patient surgeries. The recall is necessary because these trays contain one or more surgical gowns that were manufactured at locations that did not maintain proper environmental conditions. Consequently, there is no assurance that the surgical gowns are sterile.
An inadequately sterilized surgical gown could compromise a sterile field, increasing 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 product includes multiple item and lot numbers, with expiration dates ranging from 02/10/2020 to 11/18/2022. The products were distributed in Arizona, California, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, Nevada, New York, Tennessee, Texas, Wisconsin, and Virginia. Consumers and healthcare facilities should stop using these trays and contact the manufacturer for instructions on return or disposal.
