Hologic Recalls Rapid for TLiIQ System Kits Due to Unapproved Material

Hologic is recalling 165 Rapid for the TLiIQ System kits because they were manufactured with a new material before FDA approval.

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.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II. The hazard involves the use of an unapproved material from a new supplier, which is a regulatory and quality control issue. No illnesses, injuries, or deaths are reported in the source text, and the risk is not explicitly described as likely to cause serious health consequences, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity score.

Plain-English summary

Hologic, Inc. is recalling 165 kits of the Rapid for the TLiIQ(R) System, HOLOGIC(R), Catalog number: 01200. The recall involves specific lot codes: K6030, L6010, M6007, M6032, A7024, A7056, B7017, B7042, B7057, C7053, D7008, D7043, E7058, and E7082.
