Medline Procedural Kits Recalled for Potential Sterility Failure in Ultrasound Gel
Medline Industries is recalling 7,040 custom sterile procedural kits containing ultrasound gel because the gel component may not meet sterility specifications, creating a potential infection risk.
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: FDA Class II recall involving a sterile medical device component with potential sterility failure. Although no illnesses or injuries are reported, sterility failures in medical devices used in clinical procedures pose a risk of serious infection, qualifying this as a risk-of-harm scenario without yet-reported injury.
