Medline ENFIT G-tube connector kits recalled for seal defect and leakage risk
What this means
Medline Industries recalled two G-tube care kits (SKU DYKM2720 and SKU ENFITDISCKIT) because the connectors were not made to the right size. This means they may not seal properly with ENFit-style feeding tubes, which could cause leakage of nutrition or fluids. If you try to tighten the connector to stop leaking, it could cause injury, infection, or discomfort.
- Stop using the affected Medline G-tube care kits immediately
- Check your kit SKU numbers: DYKM2720 or ENFITDISCKIT
- Contact Medline Industries or your healthcare provider for a replacement kit
- Do not over-tighten the connector to try to fix leaking
The agency's original wording
Connectors were not manufactured to required dimensional specifications and may not form a proper seal with ENFit-style devices, which could lead to leakage. Leakage may result in delayed care and fluid loss. Additional consequences may also occur if user over-tightens the connector to stop the leakage, including additional clinical intervention, risk of infection, patient discomfort, and prolonged recovery process.
