- Summary: Anhui Yimeijian Medical Supplies Co., Ltd. has initiated a voluntary Class III recall of its "Disposable Medical Masks" (Registration or Filing No.: 皖械注准20172640057). This action, reported on June 24, 2019, and published by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) on June 25, 2019, stems from the product's failure to meet established technical requirements.
The primary issues identified involve critical safety and performance deficiencies. Specifically, the breaking strength of the mask straps at their connection points to the mask body was found to be inadequate. Additionally, the airflow resistance, which is crucial for gas exchange on both sides of the mask, did not comply with technical standards. These failures indicate a potential compromise in the mask's protective capabilities and user comfort.
Under the oversight of the NMPA, Anhui Yimeijian Medical Supplies Co., Ltd. is required to remove the non-compliant product from the market. The company provided detailed information on affected product specifications and batches through a "Medical Device Recall Event Report Form," ensuring transparency and facilitating the effective removal of the faulty devices. This proactive measure aims to safeguard public health by addressing quality and safety concerns associated with the disposable medical masks.
