What this means
Cardinal Health Presource Convenience Kits contain applicators with potentially open or incomplete seals on their packaging. If a contaminated applicator is used, it could cause a localized skin or soft tissue infection, or in rare cases, a more serious systemic infection.

- Do not use applicators from recalled kits
- Contact your healthcare provider or Cardinal Health if you have questions
The agency's original wording
The kits contain applicators that may exhibit an open or incomplete seal on the packaging of the applicator. Use of a potentially contaminated applicator could result in no patient harm or may lead to localized skin or soft tissue infection. Less commonly, systemic infection or other infectious complications may occur.
