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: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (sterile surgical kit) where sterility is compromised, but the source text does not report any illnesses or injuries, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for theoretical risk without reported harm.
