Oakworks recalls two ultrasound vascular tables (USV1 and USV2) due to potential weld failure in the tabletop tilting actuator bracket. This could prevent proper table tilting during medical procedures. Affected units have specific serial numbers.
Weld failure- the bracket attaches the tabletop tilting actuator to the tabletop frame. If the bracket weld fails, the tabletop tilting action is non-functional
Oakworks is recalling two types of ultrasound vascular tables (USV1 and USV2) because a weld failure in the tabletop tilting actuator bracket could cause the table to stop tilting properly during medical procedures. This poses a risk of incorrect patient positioning during exams.
The bracket that connects the tabletop tilting actuator to the frame can fail due to weld issues. If this happens, the table won't tilt as intended during medical procedures, potentially causing incorrect patient positioning or procedure errors.
Medical professionals using these tables for ultrasound examinations are most at risk. Patients using these tables for vascular ultrasound procedures may also be affected if the table fails to tilt correctly.
Check for serial numbers starting with VCF or VCS followed by numbers like VCF766794, VCF771999, etc. These tables were sold for vascular ultrasound exams and have specific catalog numbers (66783 and 64219).
