DKK Dai-Ichi Shomei Co., Ltd. has recalled approximately 1,467 LFS Flat Screen Arm Systems, including those paired with surgical lamps and standalone support arms. The recall affects Aurora series, Aurora 2, 3, 4, Aurora Astro, Stellar XL, and Stellar series used in medical environments. These devices have a defective or missing stopper block that allows the screen to rotate too far, putting excessive stress on the spring shaft which can cause it to break and shear off. This could result in the heavy flat screen monitor falling unexpectedly.
A broken or missing stopper block allows the monitor to rotate beyond its safe limit, causing the internal spring shaft to snap under pressure. This mechanism of failure can cause the flat screen monitor to detach and fall, posing a serious risk of impact injury to patients or medical staff during procedures.
