Recall Details

Company:
Biomet, Inc.
Reason for Recall:
Components of the DVR ePAKs can oxidize during shipment and storage prior to use. A delay in surgery, less than 30 minutes, may occur if the surgical staff proceeds to re-sterilize the product. If oxidative material would flake off a component contained within the ePAK and enter the surgical field/wound an inflammatory reaction may occur. The inflammatory reaction may result in a foreign body reaction and/or metal hypersensitivity. Oxidized components have failed cytotoxicity testing.
Classification:
Class I - Dangerous

Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.

Status:
terminated
