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 where an overstated expiry date can lead to use of a sterile device beyond its validated shelf life, a risk of harm with no injuries reported.
