A percentage of the products shipped in Smartscope single-box packaging may exhibit a broken package seal, thus having compromised sterility. There have been two reports of compromised sterility; however, all products packaged in Smartscope single-box packaging are at risk of a compromised product seal. Broken seal pouches compromise sterility and could increase the risk of infection if used.
