Every line below is in FDA’s own words, with its source beside it. FDA’s terms are explained in FDA’s own words.
How serious is it, by FDA’s class?
Class II, the middle of FDA’s three classes.
“Products that might cause a temporary health problem, or pose only a slight threat of a serious nature. Example: a drug that is under-strength but that is not used to treat life-threatening situations.”
openFDA, in plain words, its enforcement report fields.
“Class II is a situation in which use of, or exposure to, a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
FDA’s rule, 21 CFR 7.3(m)(2), eCFR.
What these words mean is quoted from openFDA’s field reference and 21 CFR 7.3.
What’s wrong with it?
Potential to improperly characterize tissue within the jaws, which may result in nonoptimal power delivery.

Which ones are recalled?
Voyant Open Fusion Device Models: EB040 and EB040+ Product Usage: The Applied Voyant Open Fusion Device is designed for use with the Voyant Electrosurgical Generator. The device is an advanced bipolar instrument that uses RF energy, provided by the generator, to seal vessels up to and including 5mm (EB040+) or 7mm (EB040) in diameter. The device may also be used to seal tissue bundles that can be captured in the device jaws. The system delivers the energy required to fuse the tissue between the jaws of the device by monitoring voltage and current throughout the seal cycle. The device also features a useractuated blade for the transection of sealed tissue.
101 units (U.S) and 38 units (International), in FDA’s words.

What this record can’t tell you
- Whether your own one is affected: compare the codes, dates and numbers above with yours. When unsure, ask the firm or the store.
- Where it went after the firm’s first shipments. FDA’s words cover the firm’s initial distribution, and, in FDA’s words, “subsequent distribution by the consignees to other parties may not be included.”
- How many have been returned, corrected or destroyed: FDA’s report doesn’t say.
- Whether anyone was hurt or fell ill: the report doesn’t say.
- How current it is: openFDA publishes FDA’s Enforcement Report weekly, after FDA does, and a firm can announce a recall weeks before it appears there. openFDA’s own caution: “This data should not be used as a method to collect data to issue alerts to the public, nor should it be used to track the lifecycle of a recall.”
- A product with no recall here isn’t safe by that: FDA’s report lists the recalls FDA classified, and when.
