Reston Self-Adhering Foam Pads

Reason

3M medical solutions division has become aware of a labeling error impacting 3M Reston Self-Adhering Foam Pads. This product is supplied to the market as a nonsterile device. All lots of Reston Foam Pads, catalog numbers 1560M and 1561H, with labeled expiration dates from 2020-05-05 to 2022-02-08 were mistakenly marked as sterile.
