Implant Direct Sybron Manufacturing LLC recalls SwishPlus Implant 5.7mmD x 8mmL, SBM 6.5mmD Platform, Part Number 925708
Recalled February 19, 2020 · FDA recall Z-1126-2020 · Implant Direct Sybron Manufacturing
Description
Due to a complaint received and internal investigation it was determined that implant vials were distributed with incorrect color coded vials and caps. The part/lot numbers were correct, the customer received the product they ordered, however the color on the vial label and cap labels were incorrect.Specifically, the color coded vial and cap does not match the implant size described on the vial. As a result of the incorrect color on the vial and cap, the surgeon may not be certain if the implant received was the correct size. This could result in a delay in surgery, risk of infection if the surgical site has to be closed up and a second round of anesthesia.
