Noah Medical

Products: endoluminal-robot. Risk band: Elevated   RobotRisk index 27.0/100 (incidents/exposure, time-weighted) · 96th percentile of 162 medical robotics companies.

Analyst brief

Noah Medical shows three FDA Class II recalls of the same Galaxy System platform, spanning March 2024 through September 2025, all severity 3 and all recall-type entries. The repetition of recalls against the same device family (Galaxy System, including a controller-specific recall) indicates a recurring rather than isolated issue with that product line. The index of 27.2 sits at the 96.3rd percentile within medical-robotics, an elevated band, meaning Noah Medical's recorded activity is higher than nearly all peers in that category. The record is entirely regulator-driven (FDA recall classifications), with a consistent severity level and no escalation to injury or fatality entries, and the pattern points to a persistent single-product quality issue rather than a broad safety event.
