Customed Recalls Angiodrape Packs Due to Sterilization Validation Issues

Customed, Inc. is recalling Angiodrape Packs in Puerto Rico because sterilization processes and package integrity were not adequately validated.

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 medical device where the risk of harm (infection from non-sterile equipment) is significant, but the source text does not report any illnesses or injuries, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.

Plain-English summary

Customed, Inc. is recalling Angiodrape Packs (Code 900366) distributed in Puerto Rico. The recall involves specific lots with expiration dates of 11/30/15 and 3/31/16. These products are used by medical staff for surgical procedures and patient care, including wound healing and suture removals.

The recall was initiated because the sterilization processes and package integrity for these products were not adequately validated or qualified. This means there is a risk that the products may not be sterile as intended.

Medical facilities and consumers in Puerto Rico who have these specific lots should stop using the products and contact Customed, Inc. for further instructions.
