Identified products were re-gassed (sterilized more than once) after a nonconformance occurred during the initial Ethylene Oxide (EO) gas injection process. These products have not been validated for exposure to multiple sterilization cycles. Therefore, product quality, safety, and effectiveness cannot be confirmed for product that was re-gassed.
