Elastic Poly Probe Cover lacks required FDA 510k clearance

Exact Medical Manufacturing is recalling 17,545 units of a 6" x 48" Elastic Poly Probe Cover that lacks FDA 510(k) clearance for use in body openings. The product should not be used without proper FDA pre-market approval.

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: This is a Class II regulatory compliance recall with no reported injuries or illnesses. The issue is missing FDA pre-market clearance (510k approval), not an identified product defect or safety hazard.
