Olympus Corporation of the Americas has recalled 179 units of SOLTIVE SuperPulsed Laser Fibers, specifically Model No. TFL-FBX200BS. The recall was initiated because the sterile pouch seal on these medical devices may be breached, compromising the sterility of the equipment. A compromised seal can lead to surgical procedure delays if noticed before use or serious health risks if the unsterile product is used on a patient. These products were distributed to 27 U.S. states and internationally to Canada, Latin America, and Europe.
A breached sterile seal can introduce contaminants to the device, potentially causing serious patient infections if the lack of sterility is not identified before the device is used during a medical procedure.
