Boston Scientific Recalls Spinal Cord Stimulation Adapters Due to Labeling Error

Boston Scientific is voluntarily removing two Precision M8 Adapters because the 'use by date' on the label is later than the correct date. No adverse health consequences are expected.

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 source explicitly states that no adverse health consequence is expected, and the issue is a documentation/labeling error, which aligns with the 'Low' severity criteria for packaging or documentation issues.

Boston Scientific Neuromodulation Corporation is voluntarily removing two units of the Precision TM M8 Adapter, 15 cm (part number M365SC9218150).
