Hazard

A control system failure may cause the U-Arm to move downward unexpectedly when the Radiology Technologist is positioning the equipment using the "Up" or "Down" control buttons.

What You Should Do

Remedy

Urgent Medical Device Recall Letters (dated 5/29/2014) were sent to the consignees on 5/30/2014. Carestream Health recommends that the DR 9000 U-arm be moved before positioning the patient under the U-arm for a decubitus exam. This will remove any potential safety hazard posed to the patient as a result of any unexpected movement. For questions or concerns, please contact the Carestream Customer Care Center in the US at 1-800-328-2910, available 7 days per week on a 24 hour basis; Outside of the US, please call your local Service support number.
