Richard Wolf GmbH has recalled approximately 31 PiezoWave 2 Control Units (Product Number 100506US), which are compact therapy devices used for piezoelectric shockwave treatments. The recall was issued because a high-voltage component inside the device can fail early in its lifespan, causing smoke, a burning smell, and in rare cases, sparks or extreme heat. These devices were specifically distributed in Georgia, and no injuries or incidents have been reported to date.
A component failure within the control unit can cause the device to overheat, smoke, or spark during use. This poses a potential fire hazard and a risk of burn injuries to both the operator and the patient.
