SteriSpine PS surgical screws recalled for patient label mislabeling
FDA recalls 8 SteriSpine PS multi-axial fenestrated screw kits distributed in Maryland due to incorrect labeling on patient documentation. The patient labels list the wrong screw type, though other labeling and the devices themselves are correct.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard is a labeling discrepancy on patient documentation rather than a product defect, fitting the rubric criterion for minor labeling errors.
