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.' Per the rubric, FDA Class II recalls with hospitalization reports or significant injury reports are Severe. While no specific hospitalizations are listed, the explicit risk of infection from a sterile medical device places this in the Severe category (Score 4) as a significant health risk, distinct from theoretical risks (Score 3) or confirmed fatalities (Score 5).
