Andover Healthcare Inc. is recalling 108 cases (approximately 1,944 individual packages) of Sterile CoFlex NL Latex Free Flexible Cohesive Bandages. The recall was initiated because a gap in the packaging seal was discovered, which could compromise the sterility of the bandage. These tan-colored bandages, measuring 4 inches by 5 yards, were distributed to twelve states including California, Texas, and Pennsylvania.
A gap in the packaging seal allows the sterile product to be exposed to environmental contaminants. Using a non-sterile bandage on an open wound or surgical site significantly increases the risk of infection and subsequent medical complications.
