K-number listed on FDA's recall record- Z-1291-2014 — Suture, Non-absorbable, Synthetic, Polyamide, Sterile, Rx only, Product Usage: Non-absorbable polyamide surgical suture is a non-absorbable, sterile, flexible thread prepared from long-chain aliphatic polymers Nylon 6 and Nylon 6,6 and is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation.
- Z-1292-2014 — Sutures, Non-absorbable, Synthetic, Polyethylene, Sterile, Rx only, Product Usage: Non-absorbable poly(ethylene terephthalate) surgical suture is a multifilament, non-absorbable, sterile, flexible thread prepared from fibers of high molecular weight, long-chain, linear polyesters having recurrent aromatic rings as an integral component and is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation.
- Z-1293-2014 — Sutures, Non-absorbable, Synthetic, Polypropylene, Sterile, Rx only, Product Usage: Non-absorbable polypropylene surgical suture is a monofilament, Non-absorbable, sterile, flexible thread prepared from long-chain polyolefin polymer known as polypropylene and is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation.
- Z-1294-2014 — Sutures, Absorbable, Synthetic, Polyglycolic Acid, Sterile, Rx only, Product Usage: Non-absorbable polypropylene surgical suture is a monofilament, Non-absorbable, sterile, flexible thread prepared from long-chain polyolefin polymer known as polypropylene and is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation.
- Z-1295-2014 — Sutures, Non-absorbable, Steel, Monofilament and Multifilament, Sterile, Rx only, Product Usage: A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or Ushaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.
- Z-1296-2014 — Sutures, Non-absorbable, Silk, Sterile, Rx only, Product Usage: Natural non-absorbable silk surgical suture is a non-absorbable, sterile, flexible multifilament thread composed of an organic protein called fibroin. This protein is derived from the domesticated species Bombyx mori (B. mori) of the family Bombycidae. Natural non-absorbable silk surgical suture is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation. Natural non-absorbable silk surgical suture meets the United States Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) monograph requirements for Non-absorbable Surgical Suture (class I). Natural non-absorbable silk surgical suture may be braided or twisted; it may be provided uncoated or coated; and it may be undyed or dyed with an FDA listed color additive.
