Frequently Asked Questions

When a device safety issue is identified, the manufacturer or FDA initiates a recall. The FDA publishes an enforcement report detailing the device, the reason for the recall, and distribution. Healthcare facilities and providers are notified to check their inventory and take corrective action.

All types — from simple devices like blood glucose test strips and surgical gloves to complex devices like pacemakers, defibrillators, insulin pumps, hip implants, and ventilators. Software-driven devices are increasingly common in recalls due to bugs and cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
