What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class I recall, the most serious regulatory classification. Although no illnesses, injuries, or deaths have been reported, Class I recalls warrant a minimum severity of 4 (Severe). The regulatory violation of marketing an unapproved diagnostic device without FDA authorization justifies the Severe rating.
