EXP Pharmaceutical Services Corp is recalling seven sterile laparoscope pouches because the company failed to register as a medical device establishment or maintain a quality system.
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, but the source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or specific safety hazards, indicating a regulatory compliance issue rather than a direct health risk.
Plain-English summary
EXP Pharmaceutical Services Corp is recalling seven units of sterile, single-use laparoscope pouches (KII FIOS FIRST ENTRY 5X100MM, OEM Catalog number CFF03). The product is manufactured by Applied Medical and repackaged by EXP. These devices are intended for use in general and plastic surgery.
The recall was initiated because EXP did not register as a medical device establishment, did not list the devices being recalled, and did not establish its own quality system. Instead, the company relied on its vendors being registered and having their own quality systems. The agency classification for this recall is Class II.
The affected units were distributed in the District of Columbia and the states of Colorado, California, Florida, Texas, and Arkansas. Consumers and healthcare facilities should stop using these specific pouches and contact the recalling firm for further instructions.
