Jackson-Pratt 3-Spring Reservoir Drain Kits Shipped Without Sterilization

Cardinal Health is recalling specific lots of Jackson-Pratt 3-Spring Reservoir Kits because they were shipped to users before sterilization. Unsterilized surgical drains pose an infection risk.

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 FDA Class II recall involves unsterilized surgical drains with no reported illnesses or injuries. Although unsterilized post-operative devices pose a serious infection risk, the absence of reported harm limits the score to 3 per the rubric.
