OER-ELITE Endoscope Reprocessor Connecting Tubes Lock Lever Failure Risk
Olympus is recalling OER-ELITE Endoscope Reprocessor Connecting Tubes (Model MAJ-2114) because the Version 2 reprocessor connecting tube lock levers may fail prematurely, potentially affecting equipment operation and patient safety during endoscope reprocessing.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II medical device recall. The source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or confirmed failures—only a potential for premature lock lever failure. The hazard is theoretical rather than confirmed, and no adverse health consequences are documented, placing this within the Moderate range for a Class II device with precautionary intent.
