China NMPA Product Recall - Disposable medical pads

Henan Asia-Pacific Medical Supplies Co., Ltd. initiated a voluntary Level III recall of a batch of its Disposable Medical Pads (Type B, 800mm*1300mm, batch 032002001) in December 2020. This action followed a random inspection by the Luohe Municipal Market Supervision Administration, where the Henan Provincial Medical Device Testing Institute identified that the product's quality per square meter did not meet established technical requirements. The affected products, regulated under the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) framework via a medical device registration certificate, were intended for clinical use to prevent cross-contamination. Although 2375 units of the non-compliant batch had already been sold and confirmed as used, the company promptly implemented corrective actions. These included recalling the remaining sold products, analyzing the root causes of the quality deficiency, and developing robust corrective and preventive measures to avert similar issues in the future. The recall was reported to the relevant Provincial Food and Drug Administration Department.
