FDA Class I Recall Issued for AVID Medical Convenience Kits Due to BD ChloraPrep Applicator Issues

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has updated its communication to classify a recall of AVID Medical Convenience Kits as Class I, the most serious type of recall. This action is due to issues with BD ChloraPrep Applicators included in the kits, which were previously subject to an early alert. Class I recalls indicate a situation where there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.
