Class II — the FDA judged the product may cause temporary or medically reversible harm, with a remote chance of serious harm.
This is the FDA's risk judgment for this recall. It describes the potential of the product as a category — it does not establish that any specific unit harmed anyone. Most recalls are Class II or III.
3M Tube Securement Device, Small, 1.7 IN/PO x 2.4 IN/PO, REF 1500U, Sterile; and 3M Tube Securement Device, Large, 2.2 IN/PO x 3.5 IN/PO, REF 1501U, Sterile. Product is packaged 1 device per pouch, 25 pouches per primary carton, and 4 primary cartons per shipper box.
Why it was recalled
Manufacturing nonconformities are in some lots of the Tube Securement Device, such as the top film layer may be partially or completely missing and some devices may exhibit the appearance of an incorrect shape due to excess material not being removed from the product liner.
Is your unit affected?
The recall covers only the specific lots or serial numbers the FDA listed. Enter the lot or serial number from your product's label and we'll check it against that list.
A match means your unit may be covered — stop and call your pharmacist before doing anything. No match suggests it isn't covered, but confirm anyway: code formats vary and lists can be incomplete. Your unit not being listed does not guarantee it is safe, and being listed does not mean you have been harmed.

What this is — and is not
A recall is a recorded FDA enforcement action — the FDA logged that a firm is removing or correcting a product. It does not establish that any specific unit harmed anyone, and causation is not established by a recall. The class above is the FDA's risk judgment for the product category, not a finding about your unit. This page informs and compares; it is not medical advice and never tells you to start or stop a drug or device.
