Olympus SOLTIVE Pro laser power supply may fail producing smoke
Olympus is recalling SOLTIVE Pro SuperPulsed Laser Systems because a potential defect in the 24V power supply module may render the system inoperable and produce smoke or a burning smell.
The agency’s classification
FDA (Devices): Class II
Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
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: Rubric level 3 covers risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported: the system may become inoperable mid-use and produce smoke, and no injuries are stated in the source.
