Recently, Johnson & Johnson recalled multiple lots of jaw implants after they were reportedly linked to more than a dozen injury cases.
According to Fox News, the device, known as the Craniomaxillofacial Distraction System, is used to correct birth or post-traumatic jaw defects by lengthening bones.
The devices have reportedly been linked to obstruction of the trachea, which could lead to respiratory arrest and/or death.
Class 1 recalls are the most serious recall issued by the government, occurring when a product or drug may cause serious injuries or death.
Sadly, each year, countless drugs and medical devices are involved in Class 1 recalls, as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) flags products and requests them to be removed from the marketplace.
