Plain-English summary
Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. is recalling 73 Artis zee ceiling units (Material no. 10094137) used for angiography and whole body radiographic/fluoroscopic procedures. The recall is due to a software issue where the Large Display may remain black without showing an error message after returning from power save mode, even though X-ray functionality remains active.
The defect does not occur during ongoing procedures. If the issue arises, the system cannot be operated normally, which may necessitate canceling or restarting the treatment or transferring the patient to an alternate system. The affected units were distributed worldwide, including the United States, Puerto Rico, and numerous international locations.
Healthcare facilities should contact Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. for instructions on how to resolve the issue or replace the affected units.
