Manufacturer Narrative
|
Getinge became aware of an incident with one of surgical lights- x-ten.As it was stated, the paint was chipping.There was no patient involvement however we decided to report the issue in abundance of caution as any paint particle falling 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 the event.The provided information did not indicate that the device was being used for patient treatment when the event took place.During the investigation it was found that in the past the reported scenario has never led to serious injury, nor death.A root cause investigation by the subject matter experts at the manufacturing site points out that the peeled paint is most likely caused by a stagnation of aggressive disinfectant and detergent products due to an inappropriate cleaning or disinfection protocol.We believe that all remaining devices are performing correctly in the market.We also believe that if the manufacturer recommendations 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.
