Sterile Femoral Angiography Drape Sticks; Cannot Unfold Properly

Cardinal Health is recalling 574 units of Sterile Femoral Angiography Drapes because the plastic film causes the drapes to stick, preventing proper unfolding and application during surgery.

What this means for you

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. The defect is functional rather than involving a direct health hazard, representing a precautionary quality-control recall before any adverse outcome has occurred.
