The agency’s classification
FDA (Devices): Class II
Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
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: This is an FDA Class II recall involving a medical device whose malfunction (continuous motor pumping, failure to maintain cuff pressure) creates a risk of patient harm. Although no illnesses or injuries are explicitly reported in the source text, the functional failure of a cuff-pressure control device presents a risk of adverse health consequences. This meets the High criterion for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
