Stryker Sustainability Solutions is recalling BARD Dynamic Tip Steerable reprocessed electrophysiology catheters (Product Number 200344) due to incomplete seals on sterile product packaging that could compromise sterility.
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 of a sterile medical device with a defect (incomplete seals) that could allow contamination. While no illnesses or injuries are reported in the source, the risk-of-harm from a compromised sterile barrier on an invasive catheter meets the "High" threshold for medical devices where injury has not yet been reported.
