Philips recalls BV Endura and Pulsera mobile surgery C-arm systems sold in Puerto Rico due to missing warning labels and Source-to-Skin Distance Spacer. Affected units may not be safe for medical use.
Philips has become aware of an issue with the Philips Integris-Allura, Allura Xper and Azurion systems that have been delivered to Puerto Rico without a warning label and the Source-to-Skin Distance Spacer (Tube-spacer) is missing.
Philips is recalling specific mobile surgery C-arm systems sold in Puerto Rico because they lack warning labels and have a missing Source-to-Skin Distance Spacer. This could lead to unsafe medical procedures if the equipment is used without proper safety features.
The missing Source-to-Skin Distance Spacer and warning label could cause improper positioning of the surgical equipment, potentially leading to unsafe medical procedures. Without these safety features, the systems might not function correctly during surgery.
