Wright Medical Technology is recalling 77 units of Dart Fire Headed Screws because the firm discovered a lack of adequate documentation confirming sterility.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text explicitly states the issue is a lack of documentation confirming sterility, with no reported illnesses or injuries. This aligns with the rubric for moderate severity involving documentation issues or theoretical risks without reported harm.
