Getinge became aware of an issue with one of surgical lights- hanaulux.As it was stated, the paint is chipping from the light head.There is no injury reported however we decided to report the issue in abundance of caution as any paint particles falling off into sterile field or during procedure might be a source of contamination.It was established that when the event occurred, the surgical light did not meet its specification and it contributed to event.Upon the event occurrence the device was not being used for patient treatment.During the investigation it was found that in the past the reported scenario has never lead to serious injury or worse, to death.As stated by subject matter expert, the agent used by the customer is correct but the method was probably incorrect, as he did not receive the information if the dilution was correct, and he is not sure if sometimes a direct spraying was done.The most likely root cause of the issue is related to cleaning and disinfecting process.We believe that all remaining devices are performing correctly in the market.We also believe that if the manufacturer recommendation would have been followed the incident could have been avoided.Given the circumstances and the fact that there is no apparent trend in complaints of this nature we shall continue to monitor for any further events of this nature and do not propose any further action at this time.
