Hazard
2 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 2 fluid obstruction 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 (50%) are Severe.
Hazard tags are short, machine-readable labels we attach to every recall to make cross-cutting queries possible — “all fluid obstruction 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.
Trokamed GmbH is recalling an endoscopic access sheath (18 Fr., 130 mm) used in gastroenterology and urology. Rapid fluid inflow may block outflow and cause dangerous pressure buildup inside the kidney.
Merit Medical Systems is recalling Aspira Valve Repair Kits because valve assemblies may fail to open, preventing fluid drainage. The FDA Class II recall affects 2,559 units distributed across the US and internationally.
