TELEFLEX Medical Australia has initiated a recall of its Comfort impregnated cloth topical skin products, due to the potential for bacterial contamination.
The company has advised the TGA that the manufacturer found contamination by Burkholderia cepacia bacteria in several lots of its Comfort Shield Barrier Cream Cloths, and although the contamination has not been identified in any other products, all items made on the same production lines in the relevant period have also been recalled including perineal washcloths, antiseptic body cleansing washcloths and Essential/Impreva bath cleansing washcloths - for details see www.tga.gov.au.
