Medical device safety alert: hill-rom versacare bed medical device manufacturer, hill-rom, has issued a medical device safety alert concerning versacare bed (revision e through j, serial number h345ad5880 through n138al9061). according to the manufacturer, hill-rom versacare bed has a built-in safety feature intended to protect the patient under certain conditions where bed movement could cause harm. this functional lockout feature is designed to disable the bed. however, the manufacturer has received complaints that the lockout is occurring on the bed of the captioned model when it should not. after an extensive review of this issue, the manufacturer has determined that the majority of these lockouts are related to technical problem on the printed circuit (pc) board within each versacare bed siderail. the manufacturer has identified the root cause to an intermittent connection between a chip and socket on the pc board. the manufacturer will provide a correction for the chip/socket problem which involves replacement of the pc boards in both head-end siderails. if you are in possession of the affected product, please contact your supplier for necessary actions. posted on 29 august 2012.
