Hazard
3 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 3 surgical guidance error recalls we have scored against our rubric, 1 (33%) 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 surgical guidance error 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.
Surgical image guidance software in NGENUITY 3D systems may miscalculate lens axis placement during eye rotation, potentially causing astigmatic error and decreased visual acuity.

A software anomaly in Medtronic's StealthStation Cranial Software may cause inaccurate surgical navigation during brain procedures. This can result in unintended tissue damage and prolonged surgery.
