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

Reason for recall

Getinge Disinfection AB received complaints regarding sediment residuals in the manifold of the washer and disinfector of Getinge 46-Series (CM302) with PACS 300/350 control. After performing detailed root cause analysis, the firm has identified the problem as insufficient water flow throughout the manifold due to formation of air pockets where sedimentation may occur.

Foreign material recalls cover pieces of metal, plastic, glass, wood or other objects that got into the product during processing and could cause injury if eaten.
