The FDA has classified a recall of Medline Industries, LP dialysis kits as Class II due to defects in the silicone seal of Tego Connectors. The defects include doming and tearing of the seal, which can result in an occluded fluid path, preventing users from injecting or withdrawing blood products with a syringe. This poses a risk to patient safety during dialysis maintenance.

Healthcare providers and medical device distributors nationwide are affected by this recall. Affected parties should identify and quarantine the specified Medline ADD A CATH DIALYSIS KIT (SKU ECVC8415A), Centurion CENTRAL LINE INSERTION TRAY (SKU DT19810), and Centurion DIALYSIS BUNDLE WITH NO CATHETTER. While the document indicates the recall is ongoing, specific instructions for return or disposal should be followed as per Medline's recall procedures to mitigate patient risk.
