Medical device manufacturer, Hill-Rom, has issued a medical device safety alert concerning its Centuris P750 Beds [Model number: P75051x, P75052x, P75061x, P75062x, P75071x, P75072x, P75081x, P75082x, P750ASKD and P750A000001; Serial number: from O348CC0046 to R365CC6446].
The manufacturer has received reports of the Centuris P750 bed side rail lockout indicators flashing/ blinking and the bed controls getting locked. The bed reset controls may help to resolve the issue in certain circumstances but not always. After an extensive review of this issue, the manufacturer has determined that the majority of these lockouts are related to a technical problem on multiple printed circuit boards (PCBs) within each Centuris bed.
Based on a thorough health hazard evaluation and availability of a manual release for CPR, the manufacturer has determined that the Centuris beds are safe. While awaiting correction, affected users may continue to use the device and maintain awareness of the bed reset controls.
According to the local supplier, the affected products are distributed in Hong Kong
If you are in possession of the affected products, please contact your supplier for necessary actions.
