Skytron, LLC is recalling 134 GS70 Salus and GS70H Salus Surgical Tables because the tables may continue to move even after the control button is released. This defect occurs when communication between the hand-held control pendant and the table is interrupted while a button is being pressed, affecting both Bluetooth wireless and wired connection modes. The recall affects 110 units of the GS70 model and 24 units of the GS70H model distributed worldwide and across several U.S. states. Consumers should contact their healthcare provider or the manufacturer to ensure their equipment is functioning correctly and to receive further instructions on necessary updates or repairs.
If the table continues to move unexpectedly during a medical procedure, it could lead to patient injury, unintended surgical outcomes, or harm to clinical staff. The device fails to recognize that a command has ended if the signal is lost mid-press, causing the table to continue its last motorized action.
