LINK BIO CORP is recalling 8 units of the LINK SymphoKnee Patella Sizing Template because the markings on two arms of the instrument were mixed up. This error occurred because the triangular template was inserted upside down during the laser marking process. Only 8 units are affected by this labeling defect, which was distributed to healthcare facilities in five states. Consumers and healthcare providers should contact their facility or the manufacturer to confirm if their specific instrument is part of the affected lot.
The incorrect markings on the sizing template could lead to an inaccurate measurement of the patella during surgical procedures, potentially resulting in the selection of an incorrectly sized implant. This may cause surgical delays or complications for the patient.
