Hazard
4 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 4 hydrogen release recalls we have scored against our rubric, 0 (0%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 0 (0%) are Severe.
Hazard tags are short, machine-readable labels we attach to every recall to make cross-cutting queries possible — “all hydrogen release 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.
Boston Scientific has recalled certain Proponent pacemaker models worldwide. Hydrogen gas may accumulate inside the device, compromising the capacitor and causing accelerated battery depletion.
Boston Scientific VALITUDE CRT-P pacemakers (models U125 and U128) may experience hydrogen release that compromises the capacitor, causing accelerated battery depletion. Patients should consult their healthcare provider.
Boston Scientific is recalling 2,952 Altrua 2 pacemaker units (models S701, S702, S722) distributed worldwide due to hydrogen release that can damage the capacitor and accelerate battery depletion.
Boston Scientific is recalling six Essentio pacemaker models due to a hydrogen release defect that may compromise a critical capacitor and cause accelerated battery depletion. Approximately 31,548 units worldwide are affected.
