What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This FDA Class II recall involves surgical medical devices with compromised sterilization validation. The hazard represents a real risk of harm—non-sterile surgical equipment used in invasive cardiac procedures could cause infection—but no illnesses or injuries have been reported, fitting the 'High' severity category for risk-of-harm products without manifested injury.
