Siemens Acute Care DDMR TestPak Barcode Scanning Recall
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics is recalling Acute Care DDMR TestPaks because barcode labels may not scan on Stratus CS systems.
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 does not report any injuries, illnesses, or hospitalizations. The hazard is a functional defect (barcode scanning failure) rather than a direct safety risk like contamination or structural failure, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity score.
