Getinge became aware of an issue with satelite ceiling mounted device holder.The spring arm's dust cover was missing.There was no injury reported however we decided to report the issue in abundance of caution as any parts falling off into sterile field or during procedure may cause contamination.It was established that when the event occurred, the light did not meet its specification as the cover was missing and it contributed to event.There is no information whether the device was or was not being used for patient treatment.The possible root causes are : - non-conformity of the metal covers assembly.- degradation of the metal covers.- improper use (collision with another device).Maquet sas analysis shows that the metal strip comes out of the covers when it is not clipped properly.In the scope of our continuous improvement policy, maquet sas initiated a modification file (e131106) to include this dust cover fitting procedure in the technical documentations with all spring arms.We believe that this type of our devices are performing correctly in the market.The correction of d4 serial # field deems required.This is based on the information provided by service unit.Previous d4 serial # (b)(6).Corrected d4 serial # (b)(6).
