Siemens AXIOM Artis dMP X-ray Generator Recall for Power Supply Issue

Siemens is recalling 32 AXIOM Artis dMP units because a power supply tolerance issue may cause the X-ray generator to fail during procedures.

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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the hazard is a functional failure (inability to generate X-rays) rather than a direct physical injury or contamination risk, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity precautionary recall.

Plain-English summary

Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. is recalling 32 units of the AXIOM Artis dMP, Model Number 7555365, due to a tolerance issue in the power supply of the generator control. The affected units were distributed nationwide in the United States.

The issue may cause the generator A100 to fail if the tolerance exceeds a specific value. When this occurs, the X-ray tube is not supplied with the required voltage, making it impossible to generate X-rays. The failure is sporadic but may happen during an ongoing procedure.

Healthcare facilities should contact Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. for instructions on how to address the issue. The specific serial numbers for the affected units are listed in the official recall documentation.
