App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0

Specific lots of sutures were sterilized with gamma doses that exceeded the range approved. The extra gamma levels may decrease the strength of the sutures over time, which could result in harms such as wound dehiscence and hemorrhage/blood loss/ bleeding at a critical level.

These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.
