Plain-English summary
Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. is recalling 164 Artis zeego systems, model number 10280959, with serial numbers 1000-1599. These dedicated angiography systems are used for diagnostic imaging and interventional procedures, including cardiac, neuro, and general angiography. The units were distributed nationwide, including Puerto Rico.
The recall is due to a cable inside the C-arm systems that may have been routed in an inappropriate manner. This improper routing can lead to increased wear over time, creating a potential for the cable to break. If the cable breaks, it could result in restricted functionality or system failure, which may force the termination of an ongoing procedure. A subgroup of the affected systems will receive a replacement of the cable harness.
Healthcare facilities should contact Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. for instructions on how to address the defect and ensure patient safety during procedures.
