Action Taken
The firm issued "URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION" recall letters dated 1/17/2023 via email on 1/18/2023. The letter explains the issue that an audible clicking sound can be heard when the side rail is raised, but this sound does not indicate the side rail has locked into the raised position. The consignee is to take immediate action to notify caregivers using the Sprint 200 of this potential hazard and proper use for securing a side rail in the raised position. The consignee is informed that Linet will be adding additional safety warning labels located at each side rail latch (2 per side of stretcher), add additional safety warning labels to both side rails (1 per side of stretcher), and that additional training material and an updated copy of the Sprint 200 Emergency Stretcher Instructions for Use and Technical Description manual is available using the QR code in the letter or by following a link to access the materials. The firm's service department will be contacting the consignees to schedule an appointment to perform the corrections. Photos of the additional warning labels are included in the letter. Please contact LINET service department at 877-815-9897 with immediate questions or concerns.
