(Nasdaq: PAVM, PAVMZ) ("PAVmed"), announced that the legacy EsophaCap sponge-on-a-string (SOS) esophageal cell collection device, which it briefly supplied to third-party institutions for their own research studies, has been subjected to a Class II FDA recall due to two serious device failures reported in a recent publication of one of these studies.
