Cypress Medical recalls powder-free vinyl exam gloves (item nos. 14-116, 14-118) due to potential failure to meet medical quality standards, risking inadequate infection protection.

It is possible that certain gloves from this lot may not be of medical exam quality and, therefore, may not provide an effective barrier to infectious material.
