• AT Reutilization programs should keep ordinary business records of inventory and customers. A flexible database with search capacity will allow program staff to locate medical devices that have been recalled that you suspect may be in your inventory. This search capacity will enable a designated staff or volunteer to:

    • search for medical devices that appear on the FDA medical device recall alerts

    • notify customers who may have received such devices about the FDA alert

    • advise customers about appropriate steps they can take (i.e., stop using device immediately, disposal, contact manufacturer, etc.)
