ARTIS Pheno Interventional Fluoroscopic X-Ray System recall
ARTIS Pheno Interventional Fluoroscopic X-Ray System, Model 10849000
Why was ARTIS Pheno Interventional Fluoroscopic X-Ray System recalled?
If the C-arm is manually moved in the longitudinal direction to a fully extended position, the system's safety stop mechanism may be activated. As a result, the C-arm stops the movement and can drop up to 20 mm (0.8 ). Under certain circumstances, the cover of the detector or collimator can touch and possibly injure the patient due to the C-arm drop. This could lead to a situation in which it is necessary to stop the clinical treatment or continue the treatment on an alternative system.
