Reason

On June 12, 2019 Ad-Tech was made aware that on three different occasions between March 1, 2019 and May 31, 2019 Ad-Tech personnel have distributed non-sterile anchor bolt parts to one independent representative and one international distributor, who may have subsequently sterilized the non-sterile anchor bolts for clinical use. Ad-Tech does not have regulatory clearance to distribute non-sterile anchor bolts and does not have a validated hospital sterilization method for these devices. Further, Ad-Tech labeling does not include instructions for sterilizing anchor bolts.
