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: Class II medical device recall involving removal of a critical laboratory test used in anticoagulation therapy monitoring. While no adverse events, illnesses, injuries, or deaths are documented in the source, this qualifies as a risk-of-harm product where the issue with the Anti-Xa test could affect patient safety if left operational. Per the rubric, risk-of-harm products without reported injury are scored as High.
