Hazard
2 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 2 non sterile implant 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 non sterile implant 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.
Paragon 28 has recalled the Phantom TTC Nail (11.5 X 250mm, RIGHT, REF: P31-615-250R) distributed in California prior to sterilization. Non-sterilized surgical implants pose a risk of infection.
Synthes is recalling 30 Opal intervertebral cage spinal implants (Lot 427P153) because sterility cannot be confirmed. Patients with these devices should contact their surgeon immediately.
