Action the firm took

A Customer Safety Advisory Notification (CSAN) was distributed to affected consignees beginning December 9, 2022. The CSAN was distributed to inform the customers about a preventative measure to exclude any potential risk of patient injury caused by the footrest detaching from the patient table during examination. Together with the CSAN, an addendum to the operator manual is distributed containing additional details and illustrations on how to securely attach the footrest to further improve the understanding of handling the footrest. Refer to the CSAN with addendum and copies of the Instructions for Use for each reported system.
