Patient support table floor plate may be incorrectly installed.
Philips is recalling certain Intera 1.5T Achieva IT Nova MRI systems due to a risk that the patient support table floor plate might be incorrectly installed. This could lead to patient safety issues during medical procedures if the table is not properly secured.
The patient support table floor plate may be incorrectly installed, which could cause the table to become unstable during MRI scans. This instability might lead to patient injury if the table moves unexpectedly while the patient is being scanned.
Patients using the Intera 1.5T Achieva IT Nova MRI system at medical facilities that have the affected model numbers (781175) and serial numbers (15002, 150:003) are most at risk. Healthcare providers and MRI technicians who operate these systems should check the installation.
Check for model number 781075 and serial numbers 15002 or 15003 on the Intera 1.5T Achieva IT Nova MRI system. The product was sold by Philips North America.
Verify that the patient support table floor plate is installed correctly according to the manufacturer's instructions.

The recall states that the floor plate may be incorrectly installed, which could lead to patient safety issues, but does not specify a risk of serious injury in normal use.
