Medline Probe Cover Kits Recalled for Inadequate Seam Barriers

Medline is recalling 173,449 sterile probe cover kits due to inadequate seam barriers that may compromise sterility. The affected units were distributed worldwide between December 2017 and May 2023.

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 recall is classified as High severity (Class II) because the probe covers are risk-of-harm medical devices with a structural barrier defect that could allow contamination during procedures where sterility is critical. No illnesses or injuries have been reported in the source, which prevents classification as Severe.
