Medical Action Industries, Inc. 306 is recalling approximately 5,981,534 Foam Protective Pouches across 13 different model numbers due to a labeling error. The pouches were improperly labeled with a Global Medical Device Nomenclature (GMDN) code that does not match their intended use, leading to potential misuse of the product. These blue foam pouches are sold in various quantities including individual pieces, cases, and rolls. Consumers should contact the manufacturer or their healthcare provider to ensure they are using the correct equipment for their medical needs.
The misclassification and incorrect labeling mean that these pouches could be used for medical purposes for which they were not intended or tested. This misuse can lead to ineffective protection of medical equipment or improper sterile barriers, potentially compromising patient safety during medical procedures.
