What this means for you
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 medical device with potential for therapy delay due to valve malfunction. No injuries or illnesses are reported in the source text, and the hazard is functional rather than immediately life-threatening, meeting the rubric criterion for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
