  • Causa
    Integra lifesciences corporation (integra) has recently become aware that the current packaging configuration for the non-sterile step down connector may lead to a potentially conflicting message regarding product sterility. this individually sold non-sterile stepdown connector is packaged with a label that correctly states the product is non-sterile and also with instructions for use (ifu) from the sterile kit with which it is designed to be used as a reference to the customers. although the accessories are marked on the external label as non-sterile the ifu which is visible through the packaging states that the related shunt kit is sterile. this may lead to confusion as to whether these non-sterile products are sterile.
