Why it was recalled

A percentage of the products shipped in Smartscope single-box packaging may exhibit a broken package seal, thus having compromised sterility. There have been two reports of compromised sterility; however, all products packaged in Smartscope single-box packaging are at risk of a compromised product seal. Broken seal pouches compromise sterility and could increase the risk of infection if used.

Class II means using this product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems; the chance of serious harm is remote.
