Recall Details
- Company:
- Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc
- Reason for Recall:
- In rare cases of insufficient maintenance or high clinical workload, the first rope of the ceiling stand, which is designed to take the load, could break without triggering the safety lock and this could lead to overloading the safety rope which is not designed for continuous load and ongoing movement under load. This may lead to mechanical fatigue and cause the arm to drop down during patient positioning. Patients and users may be seriously injured.
- Classification:
- Class I - Dangerous
Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.
- Status:
- terminated

During 3D acquisitions, lighter and darker patient images may be captured, which may result in less accurate 3D reconstruction. The variation of brightness is a result of a constant unregulated medium dose and the angular change of patient diameter caused by rotational acquisition. This may result in unintentional low-dose radiation exposure to a patient.
