Siemens Interventional Fluoroscopic X-Ray System Software Communication Failure
Siemens interventional fluoroscopic x-ray systems may fail to communicate dose information between sensor and software, causing incorrect high-dose reporting. The manufacturer is recalling affected units worldwide.
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 involving a medical device with a risk of harm—inaccurate dose reporting in x-ray systems could lead to patient injury through under- or over-exposure to radiation. No illnesses or injuries are reported in the source text, and the source explicitly characterizes the communication failure as "very rare," placing it at the High (3) level rather than Severe.
Plain-English summary
Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. is recalling interventional fluoroscopic x-ray systems (model code 4056869063317) distributed worldwide due to a potential communication failure between the dose-measuring sensor and the system's software.
In rare situations, this communication failure can cause the system to incorrectly report that a high dose of radiation has been applied to a patient. When the sensor and software fail to communicate properly, the system may display inaccurate dose information.
Users should contact Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. for guidance on inspecting and updating affected systems. Healthcare facilities operating these devices should verify proper dose reporting functionality and implement any corrective actions recommended by the manufacturer.
