"Triad Povidone Iodine Prep Pads Recalled As Triad Alcohol Pads Have Been Due to Potential Bacterial Contamination-See The Brands List Here" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

see this link for more pkg photos: http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm247683.htm 
Dear Ones:
     First TRIAD aka H & P INDUSTRIES has a problem with their alcohol prep pads, swabs and swabsticks, and now they have a problem with their povidone iodine prep pads.
     The offending organisms in the case of the alcohol prep products thus far have been Bacillus cereus.
      The offending organism in the case of the povidine iodine prep pads is a different one, specifically Elizabethkingia meningoseptica (pron: el-IZ-a-beth-KEEN-gee-ah   men-IN-joe-SEP-ti-ka.)
     It doesn't help that the FDA website has a major problem with getting something as simple as 'PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION SPELLING CORRECT', and repeatedly, at that!!!
     Also, the FDA's LIST of affected BRANDS--as with the Triad Alcohol Prep Products and Triad Lube Jelly Products is WOEFULLY INSUFFICIENT.
     In an attempt to partially remedy this, I have compiled the list of affected Povidone-Iodine products affected as best as I can.
     And I have 'sic'd' the incorrect spellings in the FDA text for you, as well.
     Ordinarily, I don't give a 'hoot' about innocent misspellings, but these TRIAD Recalls are a whole different story.
     In the disciplines of chemistry and microbiology where every single letter, number, symbol and syntax makes a great deal of difference, I find it unconscionable that I keep finding such shoddy FDA Recall Notice work offered to the American public!
     And we are talking about HUMAN LIVES HERE, such as that of precious Harrison Kothari who lost his life due to sepsis with the organism B. cereus.

     Perhaps I've reached this point of aggravation having encountered TWO instances today alone of GROSS FDA INCOMPETENCE in putting out their 'blurbs'.
See LINK: http://dearoneshealingministry.blogspot.com/2011/03/eli-lilly-forteo-starter-kits-recalled.html 
     In the case of the povidone-iodine prep pads here, I cannot imagine the absolute outrage and despair parents will be forced to endure when they learn of the cavalier attitude of the FDA, should their NEWBORNS DIE due to bacterial meningitis caused by Elizabethkingia meningoseptica!
     DOES ANYONE CARE?
     Anyway, look for these brand names and I will update the list as I can.  And be sure to pass this along:
Allegiance
Amerinet Choice
Cardinal Health
Medical Specialties
North
Novaplus
Novation
Total Resources Int'l
Triad
Triad Plus
North Safety

NOTE:  Below is a verbatim transcript of what is on the FDA Recall Website.  'SIC' notations in red are MINE-Rev. Barb
H&P Industries, Inc. Issues a Voluntary Nationwide Recall of All Lots of Povidine (sic) Iodine Prep Pads Due to Potential Microbial Contamination

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — March 15, 2011 —Hartland, Wisconsin, H&P industries, Inc., a manufacturer of over-the-counter products has initiated a voluntary product recall of ALL LOTS of POVIDINE (sic)PREP PADS manufactured by H&P Industries, Inc. but which are private labeled for many accounts. This recall has been initiated due to results of the FDA’s ongoing investigation and sampling efforts, and H&P Industries, Inc. internal investigation.

The Povidine (sic) Iodine Prep Pads are non-sterile and contain some of the same raw material as the recalled Alcohol Prep pads, and were therefore investigated by FDA and by H&P Industries for potential contamination with objectionable organisms. However, analytical testing showed the presence of objectionable organisms, namely Elizabethkingia meningoseptica.
We are therefore taking immediate action to voluntarily recall the Povidine (sic) Iodine Prep Pads. Use of contaminated Povidine (sic) Prep Pads could lead to life-threatening infections, especially in at risk populations, including neonates, immune suppressed patients, and surgical patients. Treatment options are limited for Elizabethkingia meningoseptica infections. To date we have not received any reports of adverse events.
Povidine (sic) Iodine Prep Pads are used to prevent infection in minor cuts, scrapes and burns and are labeled as an antiseptic for preparation of the skin prior to surgery. They were distributed nationwide to healthcare customers and are packaged in individual packets and sold in a box of 100 packets. The affected Povidine (sic) Iodine Prep Pads can be identified by the names listed below in their packaging:
Cardinal Health
Medical Specialties
VHA
Triad
Triad Plus
North Safety
Total Resources

Specific customers distributing the product and selling it at the wholesale and hospital level are being notified by certified mail with instructions on how to return the product.

Note from Rev. Barb:
"(sic)" means that something is quoted just as it first appeared.  It is used in cases where the writer wishes her readers to know that no 'translation errors' have been made by her in presenting the quoted text. In the case above, there IS no such 'thing' known as 'povidine', as the FDA puts it.  Anyone with the LEAST amount of actual experience in the field of biomedicine would--or should-- catch this and similar 'gross errors' immediately, while laymen might never know the difference unless a health care professional brings it to their attention--such a despicable state when innocent lives are at risk and lost.

"Triad Alcohol Swabs Implicated In Houston Toddler's Meningitis Death" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

Triad Alcohol Products-prep pads, swabs & swabsticks
Dear Ones:
     I've been praying something like this would not have to be written. 
     But there is a possibility that a Houston toddler died as a result of Triad alcohol prep products being used on his recent lumbar surgical incision area after cyst removal surgery.
     And it is, in fact, the tragic story of this youngster Harrison Kothari which may have been the case that triggered the Triad alcohol prep pad and swabstick RECALL I've been writing about here on this blog since January 20, 2011.

Company recalls alcohol swabs after Houston toddler's meningitis death "by Leigh Frillici and Courtney Zubowski / 11 News
www.khou.com 
Posted on February 14, 2011 at 6:17 PM
Updated Monday, Feb 14 at 10:46 PM
HOUSTON—Looking at the pictures of 2-year-old Harrison Kothari in his family’s home, you see a smiling, laughing child.
What you’d never know is the little boy had brain surgery a month earlier to remove a benign cyst.
"He was a happy, beautiful 2-year-old boy," said Sandra Kothari, Harrison’s mother. "He loved music, he loved playing with his 7-year-old sister."
Shortly after turning 2, Harrison died during his hospital stay at Children’s Memorial Hermann. At the time, he had a drain inserted in his spine to remove some fluid, and he was set to go home the next day.
"He had healed fabulously," said Shanoop Kothari, Harrison’s father. "He was going to get the drain removed the next day."
That night, the boy developed bacterial meningitis. He died hours later.
The Kotharis believe alcohol swabs made by TRIAD Group, Inc., were to blame. They say the swabs were used to clean their son’s drain. The Kotharis believe the swabs were contaminated with a nasty bacteria called bacillus cereus—more commonly known to cause food poisoning.
"In managing a lumbar drain, they use the swab on the portal," said Jim Perdue, the Kotharis attorney. "And so, it’s pushed in and pulled back out so there is literally an opportunity to have injected this bacillus cereus into the lumbar drain every time they used an alcohol swab."
Triad Group has voluntarily recalled all of its alcohol products. The company also makes alcohol pads and swabs for dozens of other stores, like CVS, Kroger, Safeway and Walgreens.
Perdue says the concerns aren’t just for patients like Harrison, but also for people who use Triad alcohol pads for injections.
They are suing the company."
"It’s a very resistant bacteria (bacillus cereus)," said Perdue. "The body is able to fight it off if you have a healthy person. But when you’re talking about injections for people with M.S. or diabetes and they’re literally using this at the injection site and then puncturing the skin, it can cause some really serious problems."
Houston endocrinologist Dr. Eric Orzeck said if there was in fact contamination, the very young that don’t have as strong as an immune system are particularly at risk.
"When it’s applied to the skin and there’s an open area in which you would use when you’re getting an IV, that can cause a very severe local infection," said Dr. Orzeck.
He says symptoms could develop within 24 hours of using it.  Those who haven’t seen symptoms past two days are probably OK, Orzeck said.
There are several symptoms the doctor says to keep in mind.
"It might be headaches or difficulty breathing, obviously infection at the site which would be apparent with redness and swelling," he said.
What concerns the Khotaris is that most people haven’t heard of the recall.
"People could have these in their homes, in their bathrooms right now," said Sandra Kothari.
And so as painful as it is to talk about their son, the Kotharis hope that people will remember their little boy and do a simple thing—check their medicine cabinets.
Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital released a statement in response to the tragic news.
"Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital is deeply saddened by the death of any child in our care," it read. "Memorial Hermann was notified of the product recall in January, one month after this child died. At that time, the product was removed from our shelves. We are dedicated to providing the highest standard of quality care and patient safety at Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital."
The manufacturer has not responded to an 11 News request for information, but its website states:
"This recall has been initiated due to concerns from a customer about potential contamination of the products with an objectionable organism that may or may not be related to Triad’s manufacture of these products. We are, out of an abundance of caution, recalling these lots and revalidating our production lines…"

     Please have a 'care and a prayer' for this poor grieving Kothari family as we continue to stay on top of the Triad alcohol product FDA Recall.
     And pray for those who manufacture Triad products and for those who manufacture products co-packaged with Triad brand alcohol products.
     It is a worst fear and a nightmare to know that one may be inadvertently, partly or even completely responsible for a tragedy such as the loss of little Harrison Kothari.
God Grant You His Blessings
