Philips Medical Systems is recalling approximately 16,768 medical imaging systems worldwide, including Azurion, Allura, and Integris models, due to a defect in the cable hose carrier. The plastic components or bolts holding the cable hose carrier may break, which can cause heavy parts of the equipment or the cable hose itself to detach and fall during use. This voluntary recall affects multiple series of diagnostic and interventional systems manufactured in the Netherlands and distributed globally.
If the plastic carrier or mounting bolts fail, heavy components of the cable hose assembly can fall unexpectedly onto a patient or healthcare provider, potentially causing serious impact injuries or interrupting critical medical procedures.
Contact manufacturer for potential detachment issues
