Medical Devices and Products Recalls

At least weekly the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issues health warnings and recall notices to the public. A recall is a method of removing or correcting medical products that are in violation of laws administered by the FDA. Recall is a generally voluntary action that takes place because medical device manufacturers and distributors carry out their responsibility to protect the public health and well being from products that present a risk of injury or gross deception or are otherwise defective. read more
