A foot switch pedal may get stuck in the active position when the user releases the pedal, resulting in the emission of unintended radiation
Philips is recalling its Azurion medical imaging devices because a foot switch pedal can get stuck after release, causing unintended radiation emissions. This poses a risk of unnecessary radiation exposure during medical procedures.
The foot switch pedal can become stuck in the active position when released, causing the device to emit radiation without user control. This could lead to unintended radiation exposure during medical procedures, potentially affecting patient safety.
Medical professionals using Philips Azurion devices are most at risk. Patients undergoing procedures with these devices may also be exposed to unintended radiation.
Check for Azurion series devices with model numbers starting with 'AZU' sold between 2020 and 2023. The product name is listed as 'Azurion' or 'Azurion series' in the recall notice.
Verify if your Azurion device has a foot switch pedal that gets stuck after release.
Reach out to Philips for repair or replacement options for affected units.
