Description

Berchtold Chromophare Ceiling Mounted Surgical Light System, Catalog #CH13000000

Reason

The firm has become aware that there is a likelihood that a missing snap ring or spanner nut may result in an insufficient mount force that causes the surgical light to fall. If the suspension of the surgical light falls, it may potentially cause serious injuries to Health Care Providers and/or patients.

Action

On October 11, 2019, a "Urgent Medical Device Correction" letter was sent to all affected customers via FedEx.
