Ziehm Vision FD C-Arm X-Ray System Recalled for Emergency Switch Change

Ziehm Imaging Inc is recalling one Ziehm Vision(2) FD C-Arm Interventional Fluoroscopic X-Ray System because an engineering change made the emergency switch an optional component.

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: The source describes a 'minor non-conformity' and the agency classification is Class II. There are no reported injuries, illnesses, or deaths, and the hazard is a component configuration change rather than a high-risk pathogen or structural failure.
