Medline is recalling certain adult portable bed rails due to failure to meet safety standards. These products may not be safe if used without proper installation.
Medline is recalling certain lots of our Adult Portable Bed Rails that were manufactured after the mandatory compliance requirement (ASTM F3186-17, Standard Specification for Adult Portable Bed Rails and Related Products and 16 CFR Part 1270, Safety Standard for Adult Portable Bed Rails ) and failed to meet all mandatory requirements outlined in these standards.
Medline is recalling specific bed assist bars that didn't meet safety standards. If not installed correctly, they could cause injury or fall.
These bed rails were made after safety standards were updated but failed to meet all required safety checks. If not properly installed or secured, they could lead to falls or injuries.
People using adult portable bed rails from Medline, especially those with medical conditions requiring bed mobility. Those who have installed the bars without following safety guidelines are at higher risk.
Check for Medline model BA6800 or MDS6800BAMMS with specific lot numbers listed in the recall notice. The product may have a label indicating the model and lot number.
Ensure the bed rail is securely attached to the bed frame and not loose.
