What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, which corresponds to a Severe rating (Score 4) under the rubric, as it involves a defect that could cause temporary or medically reversible health consequences.
Plain-English summary
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is recalling 5,786 units of the Double Basin Kit, a sterile kit containing the Devon Light Glove. The recall is being conducted by the manufacturer, Covidien LLC. The affected products are identified by catalog numbers 31145504 (7708 Double Basin Kit), 50007898 (7898-T8 Double Basin Kit), and 50007899 (7899-T8 Double Basin Kit). The specific lots affected are those where the lot number begins with 508xxxx or lower.
The reason for the recall is that the Devon Light Gloves contained in these kits have splits or holes that compromise the sterility of the product. This defect poses a risk of infection or other adverse health consequences if the non-sterile gloves are used in a clinical setting.
The affected kits were distributed worldwide, including nationwide in the United States (including the Virgin Islands) and in numerous international locations such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and various countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Healthcare facilities and consumers who have these specific kits should stop using them immediately and contact the manufacturer or their supplier for instructions on return or replacement.
