Recalls
Searchable archive of product recalls from the FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, NHTSA, and EPA — translated into plain English, severity-scored from objective criteria, and always linked back to the original government notice.
Every recall on this list has been scored 1–5 against an objective rubric from the agency’s own classification, presence of reported injuries or deaths, distribution scope, and hazard type. The colored severity badge on each card is the score — 5 (Critical) means deaths or serious injuries are reported, 4 (Severe) means significant injury or hospitalization risk, and 3 (High) means a known hazard with no confirmed harm yet. Filter to 3+ (High and above) if you want to skip routine Class-III notices.
The agency chips above control which streams are visible. FDA spans food, drugs, and medical devices. USDA FSIS is meat, poultry, and processed egg products. CPSC is household consumer products. NHTSA is vehicles, tires, and child seats. Nationwide on a card means the recall affects every US state — most do — while a state list means distribution was limited.

Minimum severity
Merit Medical Systems is recalling the Philips Bridge Prep Kit (Lot K12-09098B) because the catheter may experience resistance when being advanced over the guidewire.
Philips Ingenia 3.0T MRI systems with MR Elastography software may display incorrect stiffness values and voxel size settings when specific image reconstruction parameters are used, potentially affecting diagnostic accuracy.
Philips Ingenia 1.5T MRI systems with MR Elastography may display incorrect stiffness values and voxel size settings due to image reconstruction parameter combinations. The error affects 54 units distributed worldwide.
DePuy Synthes is recalling 3 units of ATTUNE Revision Hinge Femoral Left Size 4 Cement prosthetic components because external sterile packaging was found adhered to internal packaging, potentially compromising sterility.
Advanced Bionics is recalling HiResolution Bionic Ear System M Zn-Air Battery Paks because the non-tamperproof battery door does not require a tool to open, violating safety standards. The issue affects 45,173 units distributed worldwide.
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics is recalling certain lots of Dimension Creatinine Flex reagent cartridges due to potential imprecision in creatinine test results that could be erroneously increased or decreased.
Philips is recalling certain SmartPath to dStream 1.5T MR Elastography systems due to potential stiffness value errors when specific image reconstruction parameters are used, which may cause incorrect voxel size settings in the default MRE scan protocol.
Philips is recalling the Achieva 3.0T with MR Elastography system due to potential stiffness value errors in image reconstruction when specific parameters are used, which may cause incorrect voxel size display in the default scan protocol.
Philips is recalling certain MR 7700 devices with MR Elastography due to potential stiffness value errors when specific image reconstruction parameters are used, which may cause voxel size settings to display incorrectly.
Medline Industries is recalling medical procedure kits containing Medline Neuro Sponges (Cervical Pack) due to higher-than-expected endotoxin levels that may be out-of-specification.
Becton Dickinson & Co. is recalling certain lots of BD GasPak EZ Campy Gas Generating Pouch Systems because gas generating sachets may produce carbon dioxide levels below specification, potentially affecting microbiologic laboratory testing.
DePuy Synthes is recalling 3 units of ATTUNE Revision Hinge Femoral RT SZ 8 CEM implants due to external sterile packaging adhered to internal sterile packaging, potentially compromising sterility.
Medline Industries is recalling medical procedure kits containing Medline Neuro Sponges (ANGIO PACK-LF) due to higher-than-expected endotoxin levels that may exceed specifications.
Philips is recalling Ingenia 3.0T CX MRI systems with MR Elastography due to potential stiffness value errors caused by specific image reconstruction parameters and Resoundant algorithm settings, resulting in incorrect voxel size displays in the default MRE scan protocol.
Clinical Innovations is recalling the Kiwi Omni Vacuum Delivery System (Model VAC-6000MT) due to complaints of device breakage at the traction force gauge to handle joint. The recall affects 49,175 devices distributed nationwide and internationally.
Philips is recalling the Ingenia 1.5T CX MRI machine with MR Elastography because certain image reconstruction parameters may cause stiffness value measurement errors in the default scan protocol.
Hologic is correcting Genius Review Station displays (model CMP-01669) that were modified by users outside the FDA-cleared configuration. The devices need restoration to validated settings per the manufacturer's Operator's Manual.
Medline Industries is recalling Medline Neuro Sponges in multiple sizes worldwide after internal review found higher-than-expected endotoxin levels in representative product samples.
Philips Ingenia Ambition X MRI systems with MR Elastography may produce incorrect stiffness values due to image reconstruction parameter errors, affecting diagnostic accuracy.
Milestone S.R.L. is recalling Vacuum Bag SU Large non-sterile specimen containers (Model 68409SS) due to the possibility of reagent leakage from the container. The recall affects approximately 61,600 units distributed worldwide.
Philips Ingenia Elition S MRI systems with MR Elastography may display incorrect voxel size settings in the default scan protocol when certain image reconstruction parameters are used, potentially leading to stiffness value errors.
Heraeus Medical is recalling PALAMIX duo dental mixing units (Material Number 66057897) because the mixing rod may come loose from its lock during use in units older than 1.5 years. The shelf life is being reduced from 3 years to 1.5 years.
Heraeus Medical is recalling PALAMIX uno dental material because the mixing rod may come loose during mixing in units older than 1.5 years. The shelf life has been reduced from 3 years to 1.5 years.
Medline Industries is recalling select Convenience Kits containing 10mL polycarbonate colored syringes (Eye Pack and Heart Cath Pack) due to unapproved design changes made outside of FDA 510(k) clearance.
Medline Industries has recalled six medical device kits (arthrogram trays, angiography packs, and neuro packs) because their 510(k) regulatory clearances have been rescinded by the FDA.
