Trumpf medical received reports that the operating tables sporadically moved independently and without the user deliberately pressing an operating element. no patients or users were injured. the investigations determined that the root cause was a button on a remote control which was mechanically damaged by external influences. as a result of the damaged button, specific vibrations or movements of the remote control can emit a valid movement command at any time, either continuously or sporadically.This action was undertaken prior to the notification to the tga.
