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 is a Class II medical device recall involving surgical equipment with missing safety components. Without reported injuries or illnesses, the hazard is theoretical; however, the missing warning label and spacer in a surgical context represent a risk-of-harm scenario justifying a High severity rating.
