Multirall Q-link strap lock has not been fully engaged in the S65 rail carriage hook by user, leading to the Multirall lift becoming detached from the rail system, potentially resulting in the fall of both the lift motor and the patient

Ceiling Bracket 71 was shipped with a larger center hole. A potentially hazardous situation exists that if the Ceiling Bracket 71 with a larger center hole is used for a concrete ceiling Ultra System installation with the M8 screw and the safe working load is exceeded, the system could fall.

The current construction of the side rail latch may not be able to support the full patient weight and may give way allowing the side rail to abruptly lower and the patient to fall, potentially resulting in harm. To date there has been one report of a related injury.

The center bolt of the sling bar, which connects the bar to the patient lift, has failed during use. If the sling bar is not used as intended the bolt may be weakened. If the bolt is weakened there is a potential risk for breakage with the result of a free fall of the patient. This hazard could cause potentially minor to catastrophic injuries to a patient.

The recliners were shipped without the foot rest ottoman linkage side shields, which could result in consumer injury.

Hill-Rom is voluntarily recalling the Hill-Rom 100 Low Bed due to complaints of patient injury when exiting the beds set at the lowest position setting.

Complaints (including one reported death) allegedly of the lift arm drifting down suddenly. If the lift arm assembly is manually lifted, the actuator can become damaged and get stuck in the highest position. If a patient is lifted into the sling while the actuator is stuck, there is a potential risk of a free fall of the patient, resulting in minor or potentially catastrophic injuries.

The metal cannula attached to the handpiece can rotate and become dislodged from the plastic handpiece.

The attachment latch mechanism can become bent depending on user handling. Latch mechanism bending could lead to improper engagement of the foot section and this could result in injury to the user due to a fall.
