App-derived interpretation
WaisMed received a report in which during the operation of the NIO-A, the needle was not released from the device as expected. The device was placed on the floor and after several minutes the needle was released spontaneously. NIO-A and the NIO-P models have the same activation mechanism. However, none of the affected lots of the NIO-A are distributed in the US, and thus the company is only recalling a single lot of NIO-P in the US.
