Medline sterile surgical convenience kits with potentially weak seals

Medline Industries is recalling 33 models of sterile surgical convenience kits due to potential open or weak seals on breather pouches used for packaging. The defect may compromise sterility of the kits.

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: This is an FDA Class II recall of sterile medical device convenience kits where compromised packaging seals could result in non-sterile surgical instruments being used in medical procedures. Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported, the risk-of-harm from use of non-sterile surgical equipment in invasive procedures is significant and meets the High threshold.
