Philips Azurion patient tables recalled for finger entrapment hazard

Philips is recalling Azurion 7 B20 patient tables due to a finger entrapment hazard between the tabletop and guiding rails during manual repositioning. Operators and service personnel could suffer finger injury.

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: This is an FDA Class II recall for a medical device with a specific, identified finger entrapment hazard. The rubric applies Score 3 for 'risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.' While entrapment is a clear mechanism that poses injury risk, no injuries are reported in the source material.

Plain-English summary

Philips Medical Systems is recalling Azurion 7 B20 patient table systems that are part of Philips Allura and Azurion imaging systems. The patient tables are available in both tilt and non-tilt versions.

During manual repositioning of the patient tabletop, a finger can become entrapped between the longitudinal guiding rails and the tabletop. This entrapment can result in finger injury to operators and service personnel who manually adjust the patient table position.

The recall affects 251 units distributed in the United States and 938 units distributed internationally across multiple countries. The entrapment hazard may occur during normal manual operation of the patient table.
