GE Medical Systems Israel is recalling 133 MyoSPECT and MyoSPECT ES cardiac imaging systems because the service handles for internal lead covers can loosen or release. If a handle fails, the heavy lead cover could drop unexpectedly while the machine is being serviced. This recall affects MyoSPECT models H3912AA, H3912B, H3912BC and MyoSPECT ES models H3912AB and H3912BD manufactured on or before mid-February 2024. Consumers should contact the manufacturer or their healthcare provider for further instructions regarding this safety issue.
The internal lead covers are heavy and rely on service handles that may loosen over time; if a handle releases, the cover can fall, potentially causing impact or crushing injuries to service personnel working on the equipment.
Manufacturer initiated contact via letter to advise on the service handle issue.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
