OTHERNationwide distribution

Check Medline surgical and biopsy kits for lot numbers

Medline has recalled multiple surgical and biopsy convenience kits due to calibration problems with sterilization equipment. While the kits went through standard sterilization cycles, the equipment calibration issues may have affected whether the kits are truly sterile. No injuries have been reported.

  • Check if your facility has any Medline convenience kits with the affected model and lot numbers listed in the recall.
  • Do not use kits matching the recalled lots until you receive instructions from Medline or your supplier.
  • Contact Medline or your medical supplier for replacement kits or further guidance.
Hazard

Medline has identified issues related to calibration of the equipment used to sterilize and package the devices. All products were exposed to the validated sterilization and packaging cycles; however, the identified calibration issues have the potential to impact the sterility assurance level (SAL) of the Recalled Products.
