Action
The recalling firm issued letters dated 9/6/2023 via FedEx in the U.S. which explained the safety issue and actions to be taken by the customer/user. The actions included: On a weekly basis, check the vertical/horizontal tilt adjustment mechanism on the Venue Go Standard Cart to ensure it is secure: (1) Lock the wheels; (2) Raise the up/down adjustment column to its highest position; (3) Observe the tilt mechanism during side-to-side rocking as is shown in the photos in the letter. If the vertical/horizontal tilt adjustment mechanism is loose, the consignee is to (1) remove the Venue Go system from the Cart cradle and place on a tabletop using the adjustable rear support stand; and (2) Do not use the Venue Go Standard Cart until the corrective action is performed by GE HealthCare. All potential users i the facility are to be made aware of the safety notification and recommended actions. An acknowledgement form was enclosed for completion and return to the firm. In addition, the letter provided specific affected product details along with photographs on how to identify the manufacture date on the Venue Go Standard Cart since the affected devices that were impacted were manufactured 2022-08 and before. GE HealthCare will correct all affected products and a representative will contact the consignee to arrange for correction.
