Abstract
Recall of medical devices is a very common phenomenon in every hospital due to several issues. A recall is an action taken on a medical device that violates standard procedure. This action is necessary when a device is found defective or a risk to health. It may happen by manual or mechanical error but ultimately a negative phenomenon that needs to control for unnecessary costs and save resources. A policy should be developed for recalling the items. Whenever the sterility of any product seems doubtful, the infection control committee and the quality team should be informed so that follow-up surveillance of patients can be conducted.
