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 an FDA Class II recall of a medical device used in critical neurosurgery with identified endotoxin contamination. While no illnesses or injuries have been reported, the contamination of a device intended for brain and central nervous system surgery represents a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.
