Reason/Issue |
It has recently come to Case In Point's attention that some items in the First Aid Kits you purchased under The First Aid Factory brand in the last 12 months contain items labelled as being sterile when they are actually not sterile. This occurred due to a manufacturing error. This issue is unlikely to pose any risk to health, however there is a theoretical risk that the use of an un-sterile wound dressing on an immunocompromised patient could result in an infection. There have been no reports of injuries or adverse events related to this issue. |
