Medline Surgical Drapes are designed for use in medical procedures, providing a sterile barrier during surgeries. Healthcare providers widely use these drapes to maintain cleanliness and reduce infection risks during patient care.
The risk arises when the fabric of the surgical drapes delaminates, leading to compromised sterility. This can result in infection if the drapes fail to provide the necessary protection during procedures.
This recall is not part of a broader industry pattern.

The model numbers and UDI codes are located on the packaging or labels of the surgical drapes.
