Plain-English summary

Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. is recalling 194 units of the SIEMENS Healthineers Uroskop Omnia max (Model: 10762473). The device is intended to visualize anatomical structures by converting an X-ray pattern into a visible image. The recall is due to two software issues affecting the device and related systems.

The first issue involves the override function used when system movements are blocked. Using this function may cause the system, under operator control, to collide with obstacles or persons. The second issue involves incorrectly assigned images on systems with the detector MAX Static, which may cause an incorrect base for diagnosis.

The affected units were distributed nationwide in the US. Siemens is the recalling firm. Consumers and healthcare facilities should check their serial numbers against the list provided in the official recall notice and contact Siemens for further instructions.
