Every medical device recall the FDA publishes, pulled live from openFDA's Device Recall database - the same records behind the FDA's own recall pages. No manual sync: this page re-fetches on its own, so a recall shows up here as soon as the FDA posts it. Not filtered to devices in our catalog.
openFDA last refreshed this dataset on September 3, 2026. New recalls appear here on the FDA's own publishing schedule.

Reason: The kits contain BD ChloraPrep Clear - 1 mL and FREPP Clear 1.5 mL Applicators which have a potential breach of sterility in the packaging, due to wrinkles in the paper lidding which may extend to the seal area. If the sterile barrier is compromised, patients and users may be exposed to microbial contamination. Potential health consequences may include no injury, localized infection, or, less commonly, more serious infection requiring medical treatment, antimicrobial therapy, procedural intervention, or hospitalization. In rare cases, particularly in critically ill or immunocompromised patients, severe infection could become life-threatening.

Reason: Surgical instructions sent for viscoelastic products used during ophthalmic viscosurgical cataract procedures including in part: If resistance is encountered during insertion, withdraw cannula and reassess the insertion conditions (i.e. insertion angle, incision size, etc.) before proceeding because forcing the cannula may cause corneal abrasion, iris trauma or descemet's membrane detachment.
Root cause: Device Design
Reason: A software issue that may occur during a Volume/Time (VOT) multi-syringe infusion when a syringe reaches empty and is replaced while a Volume To Be Infused (VTBI) remains.

Reason: Downstream recall - manufacturer recalled specific lots of BD ChloraPrep Clear - 1mL Applicators. Affected product may exhibit an open or incomplete seal on the packaging of the applicator. Use of potentially contaminated applicator may lead to localized skin or soft tissue infection, or systemic infection or infectious complications.
