Allura Centron cardiovascular X-ray systems recalled over BIOS battery depletion

Philips is recalling 313 Cardio Vascular-Allura Centron systems because the BIOS battery may deplete faster than designed, halting start-up with no warning message.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: Scored 2 as a component failure whose stated effect is that the system will not start; the notice describes no in-use hazard or patient harm.

Plain-English summary

Cardio Vascular-Allura Centron interventional X-ray systems, model number 722400, are being recalled because the BIOS battery may deplete faster than was anticipated during the design phase.

When the battery is depleted, the start-up process of the system is halted and the system will not start. No user messages are shown before the battery is low on power or depleted.

The recall covers 313 units, all outside the United States, from a worldwide distribution that includes the United States. The FDA has classified the action as Class II.

Affected sites should follow Philips' instructions for battery replacement and plan for the possibility of a system failing to start.
