On 31th january, 2024 getinge became aware of an issue with one of surgical lights - powerled 700.It was found that the stop function was no longer present, there was a possibility to over rotation of the light head past the stops.This issue is related to an unusual abrasion of the head screws, and therefore, can generate metal fillings.According to the additional input provided by getinge technician there was a suspicion that the light was forced by the operator past the stops.We decided to report the issue in abundance of caution as any parts or particles falling off into sterile field or during procedure may cause contamination.
