✎ GovInfoNow plain-language explainer

Angiodynamics is recalling a specific VenaCure EVLT procedure kit because its RFID chip shows an outdated expiration date (April 2014) that causes it to display an error when connected to laser systems. This prevents the kit from being used properly, so affected users should stop using it. Read more at govinfonow.com/recall/67577-angiodynamics-venacure-evlt-kit-rfid-expiration-error-prevents-use.

“Angiodynamics VenaCure EVLT Kit: RFID Expiration Error Prevents Use.” GovInfoNow, updated August 20, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/67577-angiodynamics-venacure-evlt-kit-rfid-expiration-error-prevents-use. Based on FDA recall #Z-2444-2019 (https://api.fda.gov/device/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22Z-2444-2019%22&limit=1).

Angiodynamics, Inc. voluntarily recalled the AngioDynamics VenaCure EVLT NeverTouch Procedure Kit on June 27, 2019, according to the FDA. The device's RFID programmed expiration date is April 2014, causing an error message that prevents use.

How to tell if you have it
