Radiometer Medical ApS: 25 FDA recall reports
Every medical device recall the FDA has published for Radiometer Medical ApS. The fault, and how the agency graded it.

What the classes mean
The FDA sorts every recall into one of three classes. The class is the whole story. It is also the part people skip.
Class II is the bulk of every list here. That matters. A long list of Class II says something different from one Class I.
By class
By year reported
Checking whether it affects you
The lot or code number is what matters. Not the product name. A recall covers
specific lots. Yours may not be one of them.
Check the code on your package against the report. The FDA keeps the current
list at fda.gov/safety/recalls.

- Why it was recalled
- ABL90 FLEX and ABL90 FLEX PLUS analyzers running with Radiometer Windows 10 versions RWIN10 1.0 and RWIN10 1.1 may unexpectedly freeze (the analyzer ceases to operate) during a sample measurement. The analyzer software includes a feature (watchdog) that detects a freeze and automatically restarts the software to continue operating the analyzer. However, even if a restart occurs, any sample being processed at that time will be lost, potential to lead to delay in test results.

Read these counts with three things in mind
A firm with more recalls usually makes more products. A contract packer runs
hundreds of lines. It will out-recall a company with one product whatever either
does. This is not a safety ranking.
Most recalls here are voluntary. A firm found its own fault and pulled the stock.
That is the system working. It lands in this database looking the same as a recall
the FDA had to push for.
Terminated means the FDA considers the recall finished. It is not a verdict.
It does not mean anyone was harmed.
