Action Customers were notified of the recall via phone call on 01/19/2022 and instructed to quarantine any devices from the recalled lot. The recalling firm also informed customers that a written notice was going to be distributed with further instructions. Devices remaining in stock should be separated and quarantined, while those implanted should have patients informed and x-rays conducted to evaluate if the appropriate size was utilized. Additionally, customers were notified via email on 01/27/2022 of the recall in an Urgent Medical Device Recall Notice. The notice identified Lot MS2117816 of PediatrOS RigidTrack staples (Model No. CP20120) as being recalled due to mislabeling. Customers were asked to identify any recalled product in stock, quarantine identified units, and complete the provided Recall Response Form to facilitate the return of affected devices.
