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: This is a Class II medical device recall with one documented injury report. The injury occurred during product operation (reverse transport), but lacks specificity regarding severity or hospitalization. The remedy is informational (labels), placing this at High rather than Severe severity.
