Carwild Corporation has recalled 560 units of Ivalon Eye Wicks, Cellulose Surgical Spears, and Anatomical Nasal Packing used during ophthalmic and nasal surgical procedures. These medical devices are being recalled because the package seals may be out of specification, which means the sterility of the products cannot be guaranteed for their intended shelf life. While no injuries or incidents have been reported, the company initiated this voluntary recall after identifying the potential for the sterile barrier to be compromised.
A compromised sterile barrier on surgical devices can lead to surgical site infections or other serious medical complications for patients undergoing eye or nasal surgeries.
