CooperSurgical Recalls Vaginal Speculums Due to Incorrect Packaging
CooperSurgical is recalling 9,400 McKesson Medi-Pak Vaginal Speculums because small-sized speculums were incorrectly packaged in bags labeled for medium-sized speculums.
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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, and the hazard involves a packaging/labeling error (incorrect size) rather than a direct contamination or structural defect causing immediate severe injury. This aligns with the 'Moderate' criteria for labeling errors or low-risk issues.
