Description

Philips Expression MR200 MRI Patient Monitoring System Model 866120

Reason

During production, excess metal (aluminum) debris was found stuck to the cling plastic that covers the device's pole assembly. The metallic debris could affect system performance due to the potential for a failure to power up or loss of power. This could result in the loss of monitoring and a delay in diagnosis of the patient.
