United StatesMedline Medcrest surgical gowns and several Medline surgical drapes (green, Level 4/panel or critical-cover styles, multiple sizes and listed UDI-DIs; all lots affected) are affected; product identifiers include the listed model numbers and UDI-DIs. They were recalled because the fabric may experience premature delamination when using the included laundering instructions, which could lead to brief delays in patient care and, if surgical strikethrough occurs, a risk of infection. Owners should follow the recalling firm’s guidance.
