Hazard
14 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 14 calibration drift recalls we have scored against our rubric, 0 (0%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 1 (7%) are Severe.
Hazard tags are short, machine-readable labels we attach to every recall to make cross-cutting queries possible — “all calibration drift recalls regardless of agency”, “all listeria recalls in California”, “all airbag recalls in 2025”. The tags are extracted from each recall’s source text during the LLM rewrite step and validated against a fixed schema.
A recall can carry multiple tags — a Listeria recall might also be tagged ready-to-eat and undeclared-allergen. Use the full-text search if you want to combine hazard tags with brand or category filters.
Landauer microSTARii readers may provide inaccurate dosimetry measurements due to LED beam profile issues and debris formation. Inaccuracy may not be detected without regular quality control testing. 584 units affected worldwide.
Smiths Medical is recalling Medfusion Syringe Pumps due to force sensor calibration drift that may delay occlusion detection or trigger false alarms. About 67,507 pumps are affected, distributed in the US and Canada.
Smiths Medical is recalling Medfusion Model 3500VX-500 Syringe Pumps due to force sensor calibration drift that can cause false alarms, system failures, or delayed occlusion detection.
Smiths Medical is recalling Medfusion infusion pump components due to a force sensor calibration issue that may cause delayed occlusion detection, false alarms, or system failures. No injuries have been reported.
The Medfusion Syringe Pump Model 3500-500 may experience force sensor calibration drift, causing false alarms or delayed occlusion detection. Approximately 20,815 units are being recalled worldwide, with increased risk in devices manufactured before April 2022.
Siemens Healthcare recalls the Atellica IM BR 27.29 diagnostic test kit because it does not maintain the claimed 10-day calibration interval; the required interval has been shortened to 3 days to ensure accurate results.
Cardinal Health is recalling Genius 2 tympanic thermometers because readings may drift upward over time, potentially exceeding the stated accuracy range.
The Binding Site Group is recalling 1,002 units of the Freelite Human Lambda Free SPAPlus Kit because calibration curve activity increased over time.
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics is recalling Dimension Vista Mass CKMB Isoenzyme Calibrators because routine stability monitoring showed drift exceeding acceptance criteria.
Hospira is recalling 71 Plum A+ Infusion Pumps because pressure sensor calibration drift can cause false alarms or missed occlusions.
