Merge Healthcare is recalling 65 MasimoSET LNOP DCI adult SpO2 reusable sensors because cables may stop displaying patient SpO2, causing slight delays in care.

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 2/5 (Moderate).

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The source describes a 'slight delay in patient care' without reporting injuries, hospitalizations, or deaths. This aligns with the rubric for moderate severity, representing a functional defect with low immediate risk of harm.
