The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on December 17 identified the recall by Cook Medical of its CrossCath Support Catheters as Class I, the most serious.
The recall was initiated because of a manufacturing error that may cause the radiopaque marker bands on the catheters to dislodge or cause buckling.
Distribution dates for the catheters were September 3, 2019 to September 19, 2019.
