AMD Medicom Inc. — Ritmed Neurological Sponges, 0.75x0.75in, Sterile, REF: 85995C

⚠️ Neurological sponges used to moisten or absorb biological fluid during neurological surgery and may also be used to protect the brain during incision, may not consistently meet endotoxin specification for devices that contact the cerebrospinal fluid. Elevated endotoxin levels may lead to neurovascular adverse events, febrile response, and/or local transient inflammation, hypotension, or nausea.
