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 medical device with a mechanical defect that could prevent the instrument from operating as intended during a procedure. This fits the rubric criterion for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
Plain-English summary
Integrated Medical Systems Inc is recalling nine Olympus, Model No. CF-140L, flexible scope, large diameter, video colonoscopes. The recall is due to a defect where excessive pressure applied to the distal end of the endoscope can cause the internal coil pipe assembly to become detached.
