Medical Device Recalls

This is our largest category by volume. The FDA tracks recalls for an enormous range of medical devices: implants, pacemakers, insulin pumps, surgical tools, blood glucose monitors, X-ray machines, prosthetics, contact lenses, and home health equipment, among many others. We have records dating back to 2005 and add new ones as the FDA publishes them.

Device recalls can happen because of software bugs, manufacturing defects, bacterial contamination, incorrect labeling, or design flaws that lead to inaccurate results or equipment failure. Class I recalls are the most serious and mean the device could cause injury or death.
