Philips CombiDiagnost R90 X-ray systems missing required radiation warning labels

Philips Healthcare is recalling CombiDiagnost R90 X-ray systems because some units lack required FDA radiation warning labels and X-ray certification statements. No injuries have been reported.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: Radiation equipment with missing mandated safety warning labels represents a risk-of-harm situation, but no injuries or illnesses have been reported. The issue is regulatory non-compliance on a Class II medical device.

Plain-English summary

Philips Healthcare is recalling 281 CombiDiagnost R90 multi-functional radiography/fluoroscopy (R/F) systems distributed nationwide in the United States.

Some systems at customer locations do not have the required FDA safety labels applied. Specifically, the units lack a Radiation Warning Label (required by 21 CFR 1020.30) and an X-ray control certification statement (required by 21 CFR 1010.2). These labels are mandated under FDA Electronic Product Radiation Control performance standards.

Healthcare facilities that have received this equipment should contact Philips Healthcare immediately to obtain and apply the missing labels to their systems. No injuries or adverse events related to this issue have been reported to the FDA.
