Getinge became aware of an issue with one of our accessories - 100925a0 universal remote control used with 116001a0 - otesus or table column, stationary.As it was stated, the table malfunctioned and could no longer be used either with the remote control (including cable connected control) or with an override panel on the column.The patient was already anesthetized and on the operating table when the issue occurred.The entire surgical equipment (mic aortic valve 3d) had to be brought to another operating room.There was no injury reported, however, we decided to report the issue based on the potential for serious injury if the situation, namely the operating table not responding to the remote control or override panel leading to the inability to position the table during procedure, was to reoccur.Based on the investigation conducted, it was concluded that at the time of the event, the device was actively being used for the patient¿s treatment and was therefore directly involved in the reported incident.Since a malfunction was found, it was determined that the getinge device failed to perform according to its specified functions.A review of received customer product complaints found no past reports of similar incidents resulting in injury to either a patient or an operator.According to the subject matter expert (sme), the described adverse event could be attributed to two possible root causes.The first potential root cause relates to the outage of the remote control, which is most likely caused by bouncing of the foil keys and can lead to false keyboard error detection by the software.The supplier investigated this issue.Based on the root cause analysis, the outage may occur when an implausible key press is detected due to bouncing, when the user quickly switches the remote control on, then off and on again, or potentially when the remote control performs a reset after a self-test or after a factory reset initiated by the user.To mitigate this issue, a software update was implemented through an engineering change, ensuring that the remote control does not shut down permanently.This problem has already been addressed through corrective and preventive action (capa) 2024-001 and the related field safety corrective action, which involved repairing remote controls within the scope of the affected devices.The second potential root cause involves issues with the infrared (ir) functionality of the universal remote control, which may affect its usability.The error appears to be caused by any disruption of the 100 ms infrared signal transmission pattern.This issue occurs due to ir signals or light interference and is independent of the direction in which the remote is pointed.If this occurs, the operating table can still be operated using a cable connected remotes or via the override function.This issue has already been resolved through a software solution implemented at the manufacturing site via the relevant engineering change.The adverse event was caused by the device¿s failure to respond to commands.The investigation identified two potential factors that could have contributed to this malfunction.Due to the presence of multiple possible contributing elements, pinpointing a single, most probable root cause is challenging.However, all identified factors are related to design deficiencies, which have already been addressed through appropriate mitigation measures to prevent recurrence.Additionally to a remote control with newest software the service technician also updated the column software to the newest available one.Based on all available information, it has been determined that the most likely root cause of the investigated issue was the design failure at the supplier.The correction of b5 describe event or problem, d2b product code description, d4 version or model #, d4 serial #, d4 unique identifier (udi), d10 concomitant products, h4 manufacture date, h6/f health effect ¿ impact codes, h6/g component codes, h6/b type of investigation, h6/d investigation conclusions fields deems required.This is based on the internal evaluation and the additional information that has been received.Previous b5 describe event or problem: getinge became aware of an issue with one of our columns -
