Siemens recalls certain interventional fluoroscopy systems that may randomly shut down due to UPS issues. Affected models include ARTIS Icono biplane and floor units. Consumers should contact Siemens for details.
Siemens has become aware of a potential issue in which the imaging system UPS sporadically forces a shutdown of the imaging system PC without a true power supply problem.
Siemens is recalling specific interventional fluoroscopy systems that may randomly shut down due to a UPS issue. This could disrupt medical procedures and affect patient care during imaging.
The imaging system's UPS may cause the PC to shut down unexpectedly without a power issue. This could interrupt medical procedures and potentially delay critical patient care.
Healthcare providers using the affected Siemens fluoroscopy systems are most at risk. Patients undergoing procedures with these systems may experience delays or interruptions.
Check for the ARTIS Icono biplane model (11327600) or floor model (11327700) in your facility. These systems were sold for interventional procedures and pediatric/obese patient imaging.
