Potential exists for the collision supervision not to work properly following loss of the individual room configuration data settings causing danger of collision with fix mounted room equipment, walls or floor may occur. This might cause components of the system to fall or tilt which could result in crushing of patients, operators or staff, collision of system parts with patients, as well as result in delay or interruption of the clinical procedure
Siemens iMedical Solutions USA Inc. issued A Customer Safety Advisory Notice dated 8/03/20 affected customers via AX047/20/S. Letter states reason for recall, health risk and action to take:Siemens strongly recommends paying close attention during system movements to avoid any collision and to establish appropriate emergency procedures until the corrective action has been performed. In case of collision, it is recommended to check the system for any damages before continuing with treatment. If any device part continues to move although that movement was not released, a potential malfunction may be present. In this case, the system must be shut down and Siemens Healthineers service organization must be informed. Our service organization will contact you to schedule an appointment to perform inspection of the affected system by Siemens service engineer, and, where necessary, recover the individual room configuration data setings This correction will be implemented via Update Instruction AX046/20/S. Following the inspection by a service engineer the individual room configuration data settings will be available again. Please feel free to contact our service organization at 1-800-888-7436 for an earlier appointment. Following the correction, the cause will be eliminated, and any recurrence of this potential fault is prevented. Acknowledge Receipt of this Safety Advisory Notice Please review, understand, and confirm acknowledgement of the information and instructions outlined in this Urgent Safety Advisory Notice.
