What this means for you

Our severity reasoning: This is a Class II medical device with potential sterility compromise—a risk-of-harm product where serious infection could result from non-sterile conditions during vascular interventions. However, no illnesses or injuries have been reported and the hazard is theoretical, placing it at the High severity level per the rubric.
