Event Description
|
Staff were unable to turn off our new gomco g180 portable aspirators.Upon investigation, biomed staff that the entire new fleet (~30) were all defective.The circuit boards do not sit correctly on the face plates, causing the on and off buttons not to work easily.Our supervisory biomedical equipment support specialist did a deep dive and found that there were 2 screws of one type/ self-tapping and a third of a different type/ standard threaded screw.One screw was stripped and the other wasn't tight enough to keep board flush.Reference report mw5115619.
