Reason/Issue |
The amount of gentamicin detailed on the unit outer carton label is incorrectly stated as 1.0 M.I.U. (Million International Units). This should be labelled 0.5 M.I.U. Information on the foil pouch and IFU is correct. The composition of the mislabelled bone cement complies with the product specifications and the cement functions according to design intent. The affected lots should be used in the normal manner in accordance with the IFU, and the gentamicin content on the outer carton label for these batches should be disregarded. |
