Arjo has recalled 929 medical beds, including Enterprise 5000X, 8000X, 9000X, and Citadel models, because the wheels can move unintentionally. These beds are equipped with or have been retrofitted with the IndiGo Drive Assistance module, which is the component causing the unexpected motion. Consumers should verify if their bed is affected by checking the specific serial numbers associated with this voluntary recall.
The bed wheels may move without user input, which can lead to instability. This poses a risk of falls or collisions for patients and healthcare providers, potentially resulting in injuries during patient transfers or while the bed is stationary.
