What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Plain-English summary
Arrow International Inc is recalling 2,691 units of ArrowADVANTAGE 5 Pressure Injectable Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) kits. The affected product codes are PR-35041-HPHNM and CDA-35041-HPK1A. The recall covers kits distributed nationwide in the United States with lot numbers 13F16A0089, 13F16A0180, 13F17B0290, and 23F16F0614.
The recall was initiated because finished good kits may contain incorrect components. Specifically, kits intended to contain a 5 FR 2 lumen catheter may instead contain a 4 FR single lumen catheter, and vice versa. This discrepancy may cause a delay in treatment while a replacement catheter is obtained.
Healthcare facilities and consumers should check their inventory for the specific lot numbers and product codes listed above. If the affected kits are found, they should be removed from use and returned to Arrow International Inc according to the company's instructions.
