Customed Recalls EO Sterilized Surgical Packs Due to Packaging Integrity Concerns
Customed, Inc. is recalling 552 units of EO sterilized surgical packs because packaging integrity may be compromised, posing a risk of 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 (loss of sterility/contamination) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for theoretical hazards without confirmed illness.
Plain-English summary
Customed, Inc. is recalling 25 lots of EO sterilized surgical convenient packs, totaling 552 units. The recalled products include various surgical items such as absorbent towels, legging, T sheets, syringes, needles, catheters, drapes, pads, clamps, gowns, gauze sponges, table covers, blade, gloves, dressings, and suction tubes. These items are packaged into polyester/polyethylene breather bags with Tyvek double vents.
The recall was initiated because Customed determined that there is a possibility that packaging integrity may be compromised on different catalog numbers. This potential defect could result in an injury to the patient due to product contamination or loss of sterility condition.
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. Consumers and healthcare facilities should stop using these products and contact Customed, Inc. for further instructions or a return.
