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: The recall involves a risk of infection from compromised sterility in a medical device, which fits the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
Plain-English summary
Leoni Fiber Optics GmbH is recalling single-use laser fiber assemblies (LFS-365-RT) packaged in SmartScope single-box packaging. The recall is due to a potential defect where a percentage of the products may exhibit a broken package seal, which compromises the sterility of the device.
The source text notes that there have been two reports of compromised sterility. Because all products packaged in SmartScope single-box packaging are at risk of a compromised product seal, the entire distribution is affected. Broken seal pouches could increase the risk of infection if the devices are used in laser surgical procedures.
The affected products were distributed to the state of Ohio. The devices are intended for use in laser surgical procedures for cutting, coagulating, or vaporizing in soft tissue applications. Users should stop using these products and contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
