Philips North America Recalls

Hazard: Device may intermittently fail to produce audio. Turning the unit off and on does not resolve the issue; disconnecting and reconnecting to AC power does not reliably resolve the issue.

Hazard: Following a system restart where the Table Height 2 (TH2) is the default setting and then switched to Wallstand VS2, operators will see an incorrect orientation of the image on the first examination due to an issue in the firmware of the Wallstand VS2 board. The system will rotate the amplimat field selection by 90 degrees. The wrong amplimat field selection may cause an incorrect dose of radiation to occur. Additionally, the anatomic position markers may become mispositioned and could potentially be associated with the opposite side of the anatomy. (Added 1/3/2023), Expansion of the root cause to include incorrect amplimat field selection by 90 degrees following the first exposure using Wallstand VS2 and a subsequent system restart. Previously, this issue only occurred following a system restart where the Table Height 2 (TH2) is the default setting.

Hazard: When a Neonatal patient is admitted, the Non-Invasive Blood Pressure is not set to Neonatal mode on the Philips Xperflex Cardio FC2010 patient monitor. If the NIBP is not set to Neonatal, the cuff inflation pressure applied will be higher than 150 mmHg and the deflation pressure will be higher than 5 mmHg. An applied cuff inflation pressure higher than 150mmHg or a deflation pressure higher than 5 could lead to bruising, mmHg nerve damage or bone deformity for a neonate.

Hazard: Update to instructions for use regarding the cleaning and disinfection process for the reusable probes.

Hazard: There is a potential for AED pads to experience gel separation from the foam/tin backing when peeled from the plastic liner. The gel may fold onto itself resulting in reduced surface area or gel on the pad, or it may separate almost completely leaving only a small amount of gel on the pad.

Hazard: Due to a software defect, the Philips StentBoost Live R2.0 might not process X-ray images of the current run and instead show an image processed in a previous run. The image shown could be from the same patient or from a different patient.

Hazard: Due to a leak in the detector cooling system, cooling liquid may leak outside the drip tray of the chiller. If this occurs the liquid may drip onto electrical components in the R cabinet located in the technical room, which could lead to damage to the system and potentially cause thermal events such as a burning odor, smoke or fire.

Hazard: eCareManager (eCM) Sentry Score software not approved for use

Hazard: After the device was cleared by the FDA, Philips made changes to the labeling that do not fall within the existing FDA clearance. These devices with the modified labeling cannot be distributed or sold without new 510(k) clearance.

Hazard: Wireless foot switch connection issues causing interruption of Fluoroscopy and exposure

Hazard: (1)Start-up problem: Intermittently at start-up of the system, the communication of the control unit that manages the movement of the stand is not established; (2) Emergency stop recovery problem-warm restart is not executed correctly and movement functionality is not available

Hazard: Set screws securing the two gliding rods of the Extra Monitors (called 7th and 8th monitor) mounted on the Monitor Ceiling Suspension (MCS) can come loose, the Extra monitors might disengage from the Mounting Ceiling Suspension structure and fall down, may lead to patient, user or service engineer harm that may require medical intervention.

Hazard: Instructions for Use do not specify the maximum surface temperature of the X-ray tank (assembly housing the X-ray tube, beam filter & cooling oil) and the image intensifier/detector of the system as required an result in burns

Hazard: When the user presses or releases both the APC (accept) button and the Float Tabletop (panning) button at the same time, the geometry may stop reacting on movement requests (table lock-up) and X-ray imaging becomes unavailable.

Hazard: Customers were not notified of previous recalls associated with various defibrillator models.
