Action |
On October 16, 2019, Philips Healthcare issued Urgent Medical Device Correction notices to U.S. customers via certified mail. Philips Markets Organizations are responsible for distributing the letters outside of the U.S.
Actions to be taken by the customer:
1) The device is safe to use and can remain in service if it does not exhibit any of these behaviors described in this Notice.
2) Continue to perform Shift Checks and Operational checks as recommended in the Instructions for Use (IFU) as this reduces the risk of a failure during use.
3) If you identify a device that exhibit any of these behaviors; please remove it from service and contact Philips to request service.
Philips will contact you to arrange for repair of your unit once parts are available.
Philips will install a replacement switch in affected devices at no charge to the customer.
If you need further information or support concerning this notification, please
