Medline Industries, LP has initiated a Class II recall for Tego Connector kits, identified by FDA recall number Z-1467-2026, due to a defect in the silicone seal. Affected lots may exhibit silicone seal doming or tearing, potentially resulting in an occluded fluid path that prevents the user from injecting or withdrawing blood product with a syringe. This recall impacts nationwide distribution within the United States.

Healthcare providers and medical device makers using these kits should be aware of this recall and take appropriate action to identify and remove affected products from inventory. While the document does not specify a compliance deadline, prompt action is necessary to mitigate patient safety risks associated with compromised fluid paths. Non-compliance with recall procedures can lead to further regulatory action by the FDA.
