Hill-rom has become aware of a potential safety issue related to the universal slingbar 350, slingbar 450 and slingbar 600 which can be attached to various liko overhead and mobile patient lifts,complaints have been received that the centre bolt of this sling bar, which connects the bar to the patient lift, has failed during use.The potentially affected sling bars have been produced until may 2014.Analysis has shown that the sling bar is reliable when used as intended with the sling bar level during the lift. however, 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.

Hill-Rom is providing users with a set of instructions to follow to identify if they have an affected sling bar. This inspection should be carried out at regular intervals. Hill-Rom is providing a replacement sling bar to users who have an affected sling bar free of charge. This action has been closed on 26/05/2017.
