Customed Recalls Breast Pack MRT Surgical Kits Due to Packaging Integrity Concerns

Customed, Inc. is recalling 306 units of Breast Pack MRT surgical kits 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 (injury due to contamination or loss of sterility) in a medical device, but the source text does not report any actual illnesses or injuries, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Customed, Inc. is recalling 306 units of Breast Pack MRT surgical kits, code 900-2658. The recall involves three specific lots: 112062217, 112093595, and 112093720. These kits contain various surgical items, including bulb syringes, gowns, cautery pencils, syringes, needle counters, utility bowls, and drapes.

The recall was initiated because the company determined there is a possibility that the packaging integrity of these kits may be compromised. This defect could result in product contamination or a loss of sterility, which poses a risk of injury to patients. The affected products were distributed worldwide, including in the United States (nationwide, specifically Florida, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands) and in the countries of Tortola, Trinidad, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, and Mexico.

Healthcare facilities and consumers who have these specific lots should stop using the products and contact Customed, Inc. for further instructions on how to return or dispose of the recalled items.
