Ralston Group Recalls Maximum Pelvic Trainer Due to FDA Registration Errors

Ralston Group is recalling 534 Maximum Pelvic Trainer units because the device was incorrectly listed with the FDA and lacks a required 510(k) submission.

What this means for you

Cosmetic or documentation issue. No expected health impact, but the manufacturer is correcting the affected products.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is driven by documentation and registration errors (missing 510(k) and incorrect listing) rather than a physical defect or reported health hazard, fitting the 'documentation issues' criterion for a Low severity score.
