Cordis Precise Nitinol Stent System Labeling Correction for MRI Information
Cardinal Health is correcting labeling on Cordis Precise Nitinol Stent Systems because the instructions incorrectly stated the device was MRI Safe instead of MRI Conditional.
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: This is a labeling error (FDA Class II) where the hazard is theoretical (incorrect MRI safety classification) and no illnesses or injuries are reported, fitting the Moderate criteria for minor labeling errors or low-risk issues.

The recall affects 267,247 units distributed worldwide, including 4,606 units in the United States. Affected SKUs include various N-series and P-series codes. Consumers and healthcare providers should refer to the corrected labeling for accurate MRI safety information.
