Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that recently the operating room staff has been finding black specs in the sets.They are very small black specs.They asked the operating room to send me samples of these black specs.They were mostly found on the bottom of the trays inside the wrappers.A few times they found specs inside the corner protectors that they used.The inside wrap was white so they are easy to identify.What they found was that the black bumpers on the trays which provides protection was peeling off.Perhaps during the transportation and stacking of trays the bumper material breaks down.Not sure if you have received any other concerns about this issue.
