Class I — the FDA judged there is a reasonable probability that use of the product would cause serious harm or death.
This is the FDA's risk judgment for this recall. It describes the potential of the product as a category — it does not establish that any specific unit harmed anyone.
Vaporizer Sevoflurane Maquet Filling, Product code/REF number (6682282), Component of: Flow-i C20, Flow-i C30,Flow-i C40, Flow-c, Flow-e.
Why it was recalled
Sevoflurane used with the vaporizer may degrade to hydrogen fluoride, which could present a risk to patients or health care providers through inhalation and/or skin exposure. Potential harms include irritation of respiratory tract, which in worst case may lead to lung edema and/or severe hypocalcemia, blistering, superficial ulceration, and/or hypomagnesemia.
Is your unit affected?
The recall covers only the specific lots or serial numbers the FDA listed. Enter the lot or serial number from your product's label and we'll check it against that list.
A match means your unit may be covered — stop and call your pharmacist before doing anything. No match suggests it isn't covered, but confirm anyway: code formats vary and lists can be incomplete. Your unit not being listed does not guarantee it is safe, and being listed does not mean you have been harmed.

What this is — and is not
A recall is a recorded FDA enforcement action — the FDA logged that a firm is removing or correcting a product. It does not establish that any specific unit harmed anyone, and causation is not established by a recall. The class above is the FDA's risk judgment for the product category, not a finding about your unit. This page informs and compares; it is not medical advice and never tells you to start or stop a drug or device.
