Philips Medical Systems North America Recalls

Hazard: A problem has been detected with Philips Model EPIQ 5 and 7 Ultrasound System. The system will report incorrect Doppler velocities if you use High Pulse Repetition Frequency (HPRF) with multiple sample volume gates. While in High Pulse Repetition Frequency (HPRF) in Display Zoom Velocity Scale using manual spectral Doppler trace, the velocities in the velocity results table may be overstated b

Hazard: Philips is recalling HeartStart Home and OnSite (HS1) automated external defibrillators (AEDs) because one or both contact pins may be contaminated by residue from the soldering process. This contamination could prevent an adequate connection between the pads cartridge and the AED. If poor contact between the pads cartridge and AED occurs, the device may be unable to deliver therapy in an emergency.

Hazard: Philip's is recalling HeartStart FR3 Automated External Defibrillator (AED) because the Printed Circuit Board (PCB), which contains the circuitry that supplies energy to the device, could become separated from the electrical contact points that hold the board in place. In the event the PCB becomes separated from the electrical contact points, the AED may not be ready to deliver a shock in the event of an emergency.

Hazard: A problem has been detected with Philips Model EPIQ 7 Ultrasound System, software version 1.0 and 1.0.1. Using the International System Date Format may result in calculation errors in Gestational Age Gestational Age (GA) and Established Due Date (EDD).
