Cardinal Health Recalls Femoral Angiography Drapes Due to Sticking Defect

Cardinal Health is recalling non-sterile femoral angiography drapes because a manufacturing defect causes them to stick, preventing proper application.

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, but the source text explicitly states no illnesses or injuries have been reported. The hazard is a functional defect (sticking) that prevents proper application, which fits the criteria for a moderate severity recall involving a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Cardinal Health 200, LLC is recalling 83,213 units of non-sterile Femoral Angiography Drape Bulk products. The recall is due to a manufacturing variance in the plastic film used to manufacture the products, which causes the drapes and leggings to stick. This defect may prevent the products from being unfolded and applied properly.

The affected products were distributed nationwide to 47 states and the District of Columbia, as well as to Australia and Canada. The specific catalog number is 29560NC, and the recall includes multiple lot numbers ranging from 2450ER1 to 2950ER2.

Healthcare facilities and consumers should stop using these products and contact Cardinal Health for instructions on how to return them or obtain a replacement. The source text does not report any illnesses or injuries associated with this defect.
