Baxter recalls NaviCare Patient Safety software versions 3.9.200-3.9.600 used with Centrella Beds due to potential alert suppression. This may prevent caregiver alerts for patient safety features.
Baxter identified a potential risk where the "safety" monitoring and "bed exit" monitoring features may enter a permanent state of alert suppression. In this state, a caregiver may not be alerted remotely when assigned patient protocols (bed exit, siderail position, brakes off, height of bed changes, head of bed angle, and/or turn reminders) are turned off.
