First Source Inc. has recalled 817 Vision M and iQ Flex M portable carts and platforms used to support X-ray systems and laptop computers. The recall was initiated because a bolt that secures the positioning arm to the gas spring can come loose and fall, which may cause the arm to collapse or the hardware to strike someone. Consumers should check their specific serial numbers to see if their mobile workstation is affected by this hardware defect. You should contact your healthcare provider or the manufacturer for further instructions regarding the safety of these devices.
The bolt securing the cart's positioning arm can loosen and detach, potentially allowing the heavy arm to fall or causing the bolt itself to drop onto a patient or operator, leading to impact injuries.
