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 of a medical device with serious risk of harm through oxygen deprivation and respiratory distress if ventilation fails. No illnesses or injuries are reported in the source text, making this a risk-of-harm situation without confirmed injury, which corresponds to Score 3 (High) per the rubric.
Plain-English summary
Kung Shin Plastics Co. Ltd. is recalling the CircuitGuard Bacterial/Viral Filter with Elbow (Model/Catalog number SK200FPE / 7056). Approximately 30,000 units were distributed in the United States in Illinois across 300 cases. The affected lot is C2N24002.
The machine-side connector of the filter may be occluded (blocked) by plastic, which prevents proper airflow. This defect can cause the ventilation bag to malfunction, making it difficult or impossible for users to properly inflate or deflate the bag during manual ventilation.
Users of this filter face potential health risks if the connector obstruction prevents proper ventilation. These risks include oxygen deprivation, respiratory distress, and associated medical complications. The recall was issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a Class II recall.
