Philips LAS-100 Laser System may not operate due to detected hardware failure
Spectranetics' Philips LAS-100 Laser System (105 units) may fail to start if the device detects an inoperable hardware component during power-up, requiring manual error code clearing before operation.
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: This is an FDA Class II recall with no reported injuries or illnesses. The hazard is operational failure (device not starting due to hardware detection), not a direct risk of patient harm. No hospitalization reports are documented. This is a precautionary recall for a functional defect.
