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: The recall involves a medical device where a defect (battery issue) can cause an interruption of therapy. This fits the rubric criterion for 'risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported,' as therapy interruption in a clinical setting poses a significant risk of harm, though no specific injuries are reported in the source text.
