A steris service technician arrived onsite following the reported event to inspect the table and found no issues with the function or operation of the table.The table was tested, confirmed to be operating according to specification, and returned to service.The cause of the reported event is attributed to user facility personnel not properly centering the patient over the tabletop column prior to unlocking and repositioning the table.The 4085 surgical table operator manual states, "if this surgical table needs to be repositioned within the operating room with the patient aboard, utilize the following procedure: ensure patient is properly secured.Center and level tabletop with patient over column.Lower tabletop to lowest possible height.Ensure table path is clear of obstructions.One person must be at each end of tabletop.Release floor locks.If the table is moved with the patient aboard, apply only lateral force to reposition table.Do not push down on or lift tabletop while repositioning table.Once table is repositioned, lock table by engaging all floor locks".The table subject of the reported event is not under steris service agreement for maintenance; the user facility is responsible for all maintenance activities.A steris account manager offered in-service training on the proper use and operation of the 4085 surgical table and is awaiting a response from the user facility.A follow-up report will be submitted once additional information becomes available.
