Reason for recall
Potential for the bolts and plastic parts of the Cable Hose Carriers that hold the cable hose to the monitor ceiling suspension may loosen and/or break over time due to the forces applied when the monitor is moved or rotated.
FDA-determined cause: Device Design
Action taken
Philips notified consignees on about 03/31/2026 via "URGENT Medical Device Correction" letter. Consignees were instructed to circulate the letter to all users of the system so that they are aware of the issue and follow the instructions, maintain the notification with the documentation of the system until Philips corrects the system, and notify consignees/facilities in case the affected system has been transferred. Consignees were also requested to complete and return the provided response form to Philips. Philips is starting installation of the redesigned Cable Hose Carrier assembly on the affected systems. A Philips service representative will contact consignees to schedule implementation of the correction.
