Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

Devices providing sterile water/CO2/air to endoscopes were manufactured with a distal irrigation segment connector configuration that may be more susceptible to unintended water flow from distal tip under unsupported third-party connector use conditions, which may lead to water aspiration, which may progress to aspiration pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, or respiratory failure.

A sterility recall means a product that must be sterile, such as an injection or eye drop, may be contaminated. Using a non-sterile product can cause serious infection.
