What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states that the compromised sterility 'may result in patient infection,' which aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury' or risk of serious harm, warranting a score of 4 (Severe).
