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 an FDA Class II recall affecting a sterile medical device used in clinical settings. The manufacturing validation uncertainty represents a risk of harm, as inadequately validated test methods could result in non-sterile or ineffective products. Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported, this qualifies as a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported, supporting a High severity rating.
