Cardinal Health is recalling Kendall Blue XXL gowns due to potential rips, holes, or foreign material that may compromise barrier protection.
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, and the defects (rips, holes, foreign material) represent a potential failure of barrier protection without reported injuries or illnesses, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity precautionary recall.
Plain-English summary
Cardinal Health 200, LLC is recalling approximately 29,810,665 units of Kendall Blue XXL gowns (SKU CT5102). These gowns are intended to provide minimal barrier protection to protect health care patients and health care personnel from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material where minimal fluid settings are expected.
