Customed Recalls EO Sterilized Surgical Packs Due to Packaging Integrity Concerns

Customed, Inc. is recalling EO sterilized surgical convenient packs because packaging integrity may be compromised, potentially leading to product contamination or loss of sterility.

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: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (sterile surgical packs) where injury has not yet been reported, and the hazard is theoretical based on potential packaging compromise.

Plain-English summary

Customed, Inc. is recalling EO sterilized surgical convenient packs, specifically the Basic Pack Without Gown (Product Code 900-345). The recall involves 38 lots totaling 2,442 units. The affected products are packaged into polyester/polyethylene breather bags with Tyvek double vents.

The recall was initiated because Customed determined there is a possibility that packaging integrity may be compromised on multiple lots. This defect could result in product contamination or a loss of sterility condition, which poses a risk of injury to patients.

The affected products were distributed worldwide, including nationwide in the United States (specifically Florida, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands) and in the countries of Tortola, Trinidad, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, and Mexico. Users should stop using the affected lots and contact Customed, Inc. for further instructions.
