Philips Azurion Patient Tables Recalled for Finger Entrapment Risk

Philips Azurion patient tables used in medical imaging systems can trap fingers between the tabletop and rails during manual repositioning, potentially causing finger injury to operators and service personnel.

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 FDA Class II without reported hospitalizations or injuries. However, the hazard presents a real risk of harm—mechanical finger entrapment—even though no injuries have been reported. This aligns with the rubric criterion for 'risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.'

Plain-English summary

The recall involves patient tables (AD7 and AD7X models, both tilt and non-tilt versions) used in the Philips Azurion 3 M15 imaging system. During manual repositioning of the patient tabletop, a finger can become entrapped between the longitudinal guiding rails and the tabletop.

This mechanical hazard may result in finger injury. The hazard affects operators and service personnel who manually reposition the patient tables.

Approximately 42 units are distributed in the United States and 661 units are distributed internationally across numerous countries. Healthcare facilities with affected systems should contact Philips Medical Systems Nederland B.V. for further information and corrective measures.
