Zimmer Biomet Surgical has received product complaints reporting that the surface coating applied to the device is blistering, peeling and discoloring after usage over time (see Image 1). There have been no injuries associated with the reported complaints. In addition, an independent assessment determined that the blistering, peeling and potentially flaking of the surface coating is not expected to result in any long range health consequences. Given that the frequency of this surface coating condition can worsen with age, Zimmer Biomet Surgical is currently making preparations for replacement activities to follow in order to prevent future complaints. This document is provided to alert all users of the potential for the surface coating to exhibit blistering, peeling, and discoloring after usage over time. A separate recall removal notice will be issued to facilities, in phases, with detailed instructions beginning in August 2016. Your sales representatives will be notified when a replacement is ready. Do not return product at this time as part of this action. Image 1.

Glucose Tolerance Beverage- Orange 50 gram Concentration, Liquid 4/Pack of 6 bottles, 24/case Accessory to an In Vitro Diagnostic Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) in the evaluation of diabetes mellitus and related disease conditions. Oral Glucose Tolerance Drinks provide a premeasured glucose load of either 50 grams, 75 grams or 100 grams. After the glucose load is consumed, measurements of blood glucose are drawn at specific time intervals to determine potential defects in insulin secretion and/or insulin action. Insulin is the hormone produced by the pancreas that moves glucose from the bloodstream into cells. 50 gram glucose loads are typically administered for the initial screening of gestational diabetes. 75 gram glucose loads are typically administered for the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. 100 gram glucose loads are typically administered for the diagnosis of gestational diabetes.
