H10 updated: the investigation was completed by conducting a thorough evaluation of the product and the reported information.The on-gantry epid (mv panel) has drifted out of position over several months.It was found that the nuts that lock the panel position have come loose and allowed the panel to move out of position.There is a 6-monthly preventative maintenance check for these nuts, but this incidence has occurred before this check is due.There is no specified torque setting for tightening the nuts.An assessment was made for the potential for clinical mistreatment, patient injury, clinical user injury and service user injury.The highest level of risk is serious, low.The classification of the risk is acceptable.
