Action On November 20, 2023, the firm notified customers via IMPORTANT MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION letters sent through email. A service agent representing THOR will contact customers within the next eight weeks to schedule the fitting of replacement ball studs at no cost to the customer. Customers who continue to use the NovoTHOR should be aware that it may potentially cause harm should the failure occur while users/patients are lifting or lowering the canopy. Customers should warn all users of potential risk, ensure someone is present to lift and lower the canopy, ensure the canopy is lifted and lowered gently and slowly, and ensure someone is present in the room or immediately outside the room during use.
