Del Medical is recalling VS200 radiographic cassette holders and wall stands because they can suddenly fall to the ground and contact patients.

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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, and the hazard involves a risk of physical injury to patients from a falling device, which aligns with the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Del Medical, Inc. is recalling approximately 4,000 units of the VS200 radiographic Cassette Holder or Wall Stand. These devices are used in radiology departments to hold X-ray cassettes. The recall covers units distributed in the United States, Canada, Costa Rica, Libya, Mexico, and the Philippines.

The recall is being issued because the wall stand cassette holder can suddenly fall to the bottom of its travel, near the ground, and contact a patient. This mechanical failure presents a risk of injury to patients during radiographic procedures.

Healthcare facilities and consumers should stop using the affected VS200 units immediately. Del Medical, Inc. is the recalling firm responsible for managing the recall. Specific serial numbers for the affected units are listed in the official recall documentation.
