Philips is recalling specific Azurion 7 and 5 models with monoplane ceiling mounts because a rotation cover might fall if it hits other hospital equipment, potentially causing injury or contamination.

Hospital users with the recalled Azurion 7 and 5 models are most at risk, particularly during surgical procedures where equipment collisions could occur.
