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: FDA Class II device with a potential (unreported) device interaction identified during cardiac interventions. This qualifies as High because it represents a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.
