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: Rubric level 3 covers risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported; unconfirmed sterility on a surgical procedure pack is a potential harm and no injuries are reported.
Plain-English summary
American Contract Systems medical procedure kits and trays labelled as Robot Hyst Pack, model/item number GRRB10E, and Vag Hyst Pack, model/item number SPVH62P, are being recalled. Affected kit lot numbers are listed in the recall notice, with UDI/DI 00191072236371 for the robotic pack. The recall covers 50 units distributed in Illinois and Louisiana.
During an internal investigation, American Contract Systems determined that the rationale for sterilization of certain components was not justified and that some components are not fit for further sterilization according to its procedures. As a result, the firm is unable to confirm that product sterilization assurance requirements were met. The FDA classified the action as Class II.
Hospitals and surgical centres holding these lot numbers should quarantine affected stock and follow the manufacturer's instructions for return or replacement.
