Beaver-Visitec Recalls Hemostatic Eraser Bipolar Due to Incorrect Labeling

Beaver-Visitec International Inc. is recalling 1,025 units of Wet-Field Hemostatic Eraser Bipolar 25G instruments because they were packaged with incorrect labeling.

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 the issue is incorrect labeling and does not report any illnesses, injuries, or hospitalizations. This aligns with the rubric for moderate severity involving labeling errors without reported harm.
