"check that the device has not suffered any impact damage." in case of spring arm covers, it was established that the dust cover was probably missing due to non-conformity of the metal covers assembly, degradation of the metal covers or 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.Manufacturer initiated also a modification file (b)(4) to include this dust cover fitting procedure in the technical documentations with all spring arms.Moreover, it was established that the fall of plastic cover is due to an incorrect attachment of the dust cover or a detachment due to repeated collisions.The collision of the spring arms occurred during the handling of the device.The incident is due to an inappropriate use.The operating manual includes the instructions to pre-position the arms prior to use, in order to prevent damages.Additionally, the users are requested to pay attention to cracks in plastic parts.Getinge shall continue to monitor for any further events of this nature and does not propose any further action at this time.
