What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The agency classified this as an FDA Class II recall. Per the rubric, FDA Class II recalls involving significant injury/property-damage reports or hospitalization are Severe; while specific injury reports are not detailed in the snippet, the lack of sterility assurance in a sterile product is a significant hazard warranting a Severe classification under the Class II criteria.
