Agency Publication Date: March 4, 2024

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Invacare Corporation is recalling 8,117 units of various bed components used in Homecare Series and G-Series beds. These components, including head sections and footsprings, were identified with potential weld defects that can lead to premature failure of the structure. The beds were distributed nationwide across the United States. Consumers should check the serial number of their bed components to see if they are included in this recall and contact their healthcare provider or the manufacturer for further guidance.

Risk

A defect in the welding of critical bed frame components can cause the welds to break prematurely. If a weld fails while the bed is in use, it could cause the bed to collapse or tilt unexpectedly, potentially causing serious injury to the patient.

What You Should Do

  1. Locate the serial number label on your Invacare bed components (G50 head section, G53 bed ends, G54 foot section, BAR5490IVC foot section, BAR5000IVC head section, 5000IVC head section, 5490IVC foot section, or 5490LOW footspring).
  2. Check your serial number against the extensive list of affected codes, such as those beginning with 23HX, 23IX, and 23JX.
  3. If your component is identified in the recall, contact your healthcare provider or the medical equipment supplier that provided the bed to determine if a replacement or repair is available.
  4. Contact Invacare Corporation directly at their Elyria, Ohio headquarters for specific information regarding the remedy or corrective actions for your specific model.
  5. Call the FDA at 1-888-463-6332 (1-888-INFO-FDA) if you have further questions or need additional assistance.
