Medline Industries is recalling 13,024 Centurion and Medline medical procedure trays and kits because a ring on the Trumpet Needle Guide can detach if too much pressure is applied. These kits are used in clinical settings for paracervical and pudendal nerve blocks. If the ring detaches during a procedure, it could lead to surgical complications or the ring becoming a foreign object in the patient. Consumers and healthcare providers should check their inventory for the specific tray models and lot numbers listed in this recall.
The needle guide ring can break off when excessive pressure is used, potentially causing the ring to remain inside a patient or requiring additional medical intervention to retrieve the detached part.
