| Issue: | Customers have reported that on rare occasions, the Devon™ Light Glove may split upon application to the Devon™ Light Handle Adapter. A subset of these splits reportedly resulted from a difficult application of the glove to the handle adapter. A split in the glove can potentially lead to a breach in the sterile barrier between the glove and the handle adapter. "After application, inspect the Light Glove for barrier integrity." |
