Reason for recall
Zimmer is recalling sterile-packaged implants and instruments packaged in six different package configurations due to packaging design verification test failures. Specifically, multiple test samples from each of the six configurations failed simulated distribution and shipping testing when the devices either breached inner or outer package trays or seal integrity was lost.
A sterility recall means a product that must be sterile, such as an injection or eye drop, may be contaminated. Using a non-sterile product can cause serious infection.
