Recalled Products

Shaver Handpiece Sterilization Tray

Reason

During testing shaver hand piece tray failed Sterrad 100s half cycle testing and did not demonstrate a sterility assurance level of 10-6 for the TPS shaver. It has been determined that the reprocessing guide (P10299 Rev. A) is the non-conforming part of the shaver hand piece tray and the sterilization method with inadequate sterilization validation (Sterrad 100s) needs to be removed as a sterilization option for the TPS small joint shaver.
