Philips North America Llc is recalling 837 imaging systems across several models, including CombiDiagnost R90 and various DigitalDiagnost versions, because components suspended from the ceiling may fail and fall. This defect can lead to the heavy equipment unexpectedly dropping during use. No specific injuries were reported in the data, but the recall covers systems distributed nationwide. Consumers should contact their healthcare provider or Philips for information on inspections and necessary repairs.
The ceiling-mounted components of these radiography and fluoroscopy systems can fail structurally, causing the equipment to fall. This poses a significant risk of impact injuries to patients or medical staff located beneath the suspended units.
