Gel-E Donut and Squishon 2 Recalled (Class I): AttorneyOne Monitors and Keeps Consumers Informed
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) August 26, 2014 -- AttorneyOne.com, a recognized authority on law, update the website daily regarding all the latest information from the FDA on Gel-E Donut and Squishon 2.
The US FDA announced on August 22, that Gel-E Donut and Squishon 2 gel-filled products, by Children’s Medical Ventures, are recalled (Class I) due to complaints about visible mold. Gel E-Donut and Squishon 2 are gel-filled products used to support and cradle an infant’s head and/or body, help ease pressure caused by long periods of stillness and allow for head movement while maintaining a supportive surface.
The reason for the recall is based on complaints about visible mold on the outer surface of the products. The mold was determined to be Cladosporium and Penicillium Fungi. Cladosporium can cause sinus, eye, skin, and brain infections especially in patients with an impaired or weakened immune system, critically ill patients, and neonates. Moreover, Cladosporium and Penicillium Fungi can cause difficulty in breathing or allergic reaction.
The affected Product Model Numbers are:
- Gel-E Donut 92025-A, 92025-B, 92025-C, and
- Squishon 2 91033-2
The FDA classified this recall as Class I, meaning use of the products included in the recall may cause serious injuries or death.
