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 medical device recall where temperature exposure may have impacted product effectiveness. The source reports no illnesses or injuries, and the hazard is theoretical rather than documented. Per the rubric, recalls with no reported illnesses and theoretical hazards score at most 3 (High); the medical device category and potential effectiveness issue justify this score over a lower rating.
