Manufacturer Narrative
The facility management was the initial reporter.Getinge became aware of an issue with one of our examination lights ¿ lucea 40.As it was stated and confirmed with photographic evidence, the cover was cracked resulting in missing particles.There was no injury reported, however we decided to report the issue in abundance of caution as any particles falling off during examination may lead to potential infection of the patient.The affected device was repaired by replacing broken cover (ard368605998 - handle interface with fork - lucea 40).It was established that when the event occurred, the surgical light did not meet its specification due to cracks and missing particles from cover, which contributed to the event.Provided information indicate that upon the event occurrence the device was not being used for patient treatment.Review of received customer product complaints related to investigated issue, revealed that there were no injuries to a user nor to a patient or operator when this particular malfunction occurred.We can assume that the failure ratio of cracks and missing particles on lucea 10/40 devices is moderate.A root cause analysis was performed by subject matter experts at manufacturing site.Based on some internal test done by maquet sas (ref: cre 12-085 for instance), only abnormal use (violent collisions, excessive pressure¿) or the use of incompatible cleaning products or protocol, can damage this device as reported in this complaint.The user manual explains how to check the light heads during daily inspection (ifu_lucea_10_40_01701en12, pages 22-23).To avoid any similar incident, the lucea product must be used according with the user manual information (ifu_lucea_10_40_01701en12, pages 22-25).We believe the related devices are performing correctly in the market.We also believe that if the manufacturer recommendation had been followed the incident could have been avoided.Getinge shall continue to monitor for any further events of this nature and do not propose any further action at this time.
