DeRoyal Industries has recalled 134 GeoMed Custom Tracecarts—specifically the Ortho Total Joint and General Surgery models—because they contain a previously recalled Nurse Assist 16FR Silver Urine Meter Foley catheter. These surgical kits are used in clinical settings and the included urine meter component may not be sterile, which can lead to serious health complications for patients. Healthcare facilities in Florida are affected and should immediately identify and sequester any remaining kits from the specified lot numbers.
The inclusion of a non-sterile urine meter in these surgical carts poses a significant risk of infection or other serious health complications for patients undergoing surgery. While no specific injuries were mentioned in this report, the underlying component was recalled due to potential sterility issues.
