Plain-English summary
Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. is recalling 70 Ysio fully automated radiographic systems (Model Number 10281013 with VC10 software version) that were distributed nationwide in the United States.
The recall is due to a software error in previous software version VB10. This error causes the system to process incorrect internal values for the position of the ceiling tube stand. When a user activates a longitudinal or transversal movement, the system controls may initiate an unintended correction movement of the tube stand.
This unintended movement creates a potential collision risk for objects or persons in the vicinity of the moving stand. The manufacturer indicates this may result in minor to serious injuries to persons.
Facilities operating affected systems should verify their unit serial numbers against the recall notice and contact Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. for guidance on corrective measures.
