Medline Convenience Kits with Plastic Syringes Recalled for Leaks and Breakage

Medline Convenience kits with plastic syringes affected by an FDA safety alert are being recalled due to leaks, breakage, and quality issues that may harm patients.

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: This is an FDA Class II recall of medical devices used in clinical procedures where defects could potentially harm patients. However, no illnesses or injuries have been reported, making the hazard theoretical rather than confirmed.

The recalled kits include central line kits, small wound trays, radiology utility trays, blood culture sets, laceration trays in multiple configurations, and other clinical and surgical procedure kits.
