FDA Medical Device Recalls

View 10000 FDA Medical Device Recalls on BEUDAMED, the Better Database on Medical Devices. This searchable listing aggregates recall notices issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for devices removed, corrected, or returned due to safety, labeling, or performance concerns. Each record summarizes the recall reason, affected models and lots, recall class, and recommended actions for patients and providers.

Searchable filters help stakeholders identify affected manufacturers, device models, and recall classes (Class I–III) and review timelines and remediation steps. Healthcare providers and purchasers can use these records to verify whether inventory is affected and to implement recommended corrections, returns, or patient notifications.

Eius Unicompartmental Knee System Stryker Howmedica Osteonics Corp. Howmedica International S. de R.L., Raheen Business Park, Limerick, Ireland. Intended for use in Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty (UKA). Surgeon users have identified the following potential advantages of UKA procedures versus Total Knee Arthroplasty procedures generally: conservation of the opposite compartment, preservation of ligaments and patellofemoral articulation, reduced loss of bone stock and lower implant cost. The EIUS UKA is a Resurfacing device that requires the removal of a thin condylar cross-section intended to replace the diseased cartilage only. This allows the surgeon to conserve good quality subchondral bone.

REF 00-5972-031-10, Nextgen Complete Knee System, Prolong highly crosslinked polyethylene Cruciate Retaining (CR) Micro Articular Surface Size Striped Yellow 10mm Height , Sterile R, Rx ,Zimmer, Inc. Warsaw, IN The NexGen Articular Surface serves as a spacer between the baseplate of the Intended Use. tibia and the metal implant that covers the end of the femur. The micro articular surfaces are made of either conventional or prolong polyethylene in thicknesses of 9, 10, 12, 14, 17, or 20mm. The articulating surface of the device is conforming to the geometry of the NexGen micro femoral components. The articular surface locks into the tibial baseplate and is contained by a peripheral rail. The articular surface is explantable without removing the tibial base plate. The NexGen Complete Knee System ,integrated, with an extensive cruciate retaining, cruciate substituting, and fully constrained component configurations, design specific, conforming surfaces, femoral and tibial augmentation. The femoral, patellar, articular surface, and tibial base plate components should be design specific to the condition and availability of the bone stock, and the condition and functionality of soft tissues. This allows the surgeon to select the most appropriate component combination to meet specific patient needs. Articulating surfaces on micro femoral and tibial components have a smaller bearing spacing than those on the standard and macro components.
