Boston Scientific Recalls NaviFlex LW Pusher and Advx Panc. Stent

Boston Scientific is recalling 403 units of NaviFlex LW Pusher and Advx Panc. Stent devices due to an incorrect manufacturing feature.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Devices): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 2/5 (Moderate).

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as Class II because the devices were manufactured with an incorrect design feature, a guidewire exit port, which is not associated with this configuration. The source does not report any illnesses, injuries, or deaths.
