Reason/Issue An internal review concluded that 6 lots of Disposable StrykeFlow Tips were shipped with a potentially deformed blister pouch, which could potentially impact the sterility of the product. Although to date there have been no reported events of infection to Stryker as a result of using potentially affected product, there is a remote possibility for infection due to usage of a non-sterile product.
