Medline Convenience Kits recalled for sterile packaging breach and contamination risk

Several Medline medical convenience kits—including IV start kits, blood culture kits, and pediatric emergency trays—contain sterile applicators with wrinkles in the packaging that may compromise the sterile barrier. If the packaging is damaged, the contents could be exposed to microbial contamination, which could cause infection ranging from minor to serious.
