- The firm, EKOS, sent an "URGENT FIELD SAFETY ACTION" letter dated August 22, 2016 to its customers. The letters were sent to customers informing them of the field safety action, how to identify the affected carts at their facility and instructing customers locate the cart, quarantine it and do not use the cart for any procedures. A representative from EKOS Corporation will be contacting customers in the near future to arrange a date and time when the cart at a facility can be inspected and any affected caster(s) replaced. As the cart is inspected, it will be tagged to easily identify it and confirm it has been inspected and repaired as necessary. Customers will be provided with a copy of the inspection/repair form for the cart they inspect. Please retain that form for records.
