What happened

GE Healthcare is recalling video monitor suspensions used in overhead installations on multiple fluoroscopic and radiographic X-ray systems, including the Precision 500D, Legacy, Prestilix, Monitrol, RFX, SFX, Tilt-C, and Prestige VH models. The defect involves four outer screws that secure the video monitor suspension to the carriage being missing since the systems were initially installed. Approximately 5,651 affected units have been distributed worldwide, including throughout the United States, U.S. territories, and numerous countries internationally. Although GE is aware of no incidents involving the monitor suspension falling, the missing screws create a potential safety hazard.
