Sterile Anesthesia Kits Recalled for Non-Sterile Component Mixing
Medline Industries recalled anesthesia kits containing an unlabeled non-sterile Mastisol component that could be mistakenly assumed sterile during use, creating infection risk. The recall affects 315 units distributed in Texas, Illinois, and California.
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 with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard is theoretical but significant: an unlabeled non-sterile component in sterile surgical kits could cause patient infection if users assume sterility. This meets the rubric criterion for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
Plain-English summary
Medline Industries has recalled the ANESTHESIA TURNOVER KIT (Pack Number DYNJAA0377A), affecting 315 units with lot numbers 23IBJ309, 23GBA500, 23GBA457, 23CBE394, and 23BBL312.
The kits contain a Mastisol component that is non-sterile but was not labeled to indicate this. The unlabeled component was included in the kits, which are otherwise sterile. If users assume the component is sterile during use, there is an increased risk of patient infection.
The affected kits were distributed in Texas, Illinois, and California. Healthcare facilities and users of these kits should discontinue use and contact Medline Industries for information about returns or replacements.
