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: FDA Class II recall of a pediatric urinary catheter with potential sterility compromise due to manufacturing defect. No reported illnesses or injuries, so the score is limited to 3 per the rubric criterion that theoretical hazards without reported injury are at most 3.
