Description

Medical Positioning Rapid Response HUT table with Dual 2 Way Drop Section, Powered Medical Examination table, Model # 1217. Product Usage: Used to conduct syncope examinations.

Reason

Excessive weight on the table will cause tables with the affected component to drop into the Trendelenburg position more rapidly than normal. The product was manufactured with a component that can cause the device to malfunction.

Action

The letter identified the affected product, problem and actions to be taken. Customers were informed a Product Support Specialist will contact them to make arrangements for a Field Service Technician to perform a test designed to identify if the table component affects the table mechanics.
