Zimmer Manufacturing B.V. is recalling 512 sterile I/B II Knee Domed Patella components for total knee arthroplasty due to insufficient sealer calibration data.
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 illnesses, injuries, or hospitalizations. The hazard is a potential sterility issue due to calibration data, which fits the criteria for a moderate risk where harm is possible but not reported.
