An inspection of the device performed by a baxter technician noted that no malfunction was identified.The reported event could not be replicated and was attributed to a possible incorrect attachment of the lift to the rail.Upon inspection, baxter technician ran a function test on device and rail.The baxter technician thoroughly inspected the lift and was unable to duplicate the reported issue.The lift functioned as designed.However, if the reported event of a engine falling were to recur, it would be likely to cause or contribute to death or serious injury, therefore baxter considers this event reportable.Multirall¿ 200 overhead lift is a general-purpose lift with the intended use in: health care, intensive care and rehabilitation.Multirall 200 overhead lift is easy to move between facilities and useful for room-to-room transitions.Multirall¿ 200 overhead lift can be mounted to the rail carriage in two different ways, mounted with the lift strap under the lift unit or mounted with the lift strap above the lift unit.Intended for use in all common lift and transfer situations, for example, between bed/wheelchair, to/ from floor, toilet visits, gait training, and for horizontal lifts with stretchers.A search of the baxter maintenance records showed baxter performed preventative maintenance on this bed in sep 16, 2025.It is unknown if the facility performed any other preventative maintenance on this bed.
