Deerfield Imaging, Inc. recalls Trumpf Mount Clamp Assembly (table adapter component), part
Recalled Product
Trumpf Mount Clamp Assembly (table adapter component), part #118704-000, a component of the IMRIS HFD100 head fixation device, models #119629-000 and #119630-000, which are used with ORT400 operating room tables.
Hazard / Issue
Reports have been received that after normal or routine lateral forces are applied to the head fixation device, the split block clamp may deflect (rotationally around the axis) and not return to within acceptable distance from its prior position after the force is removed. In order to reduce deflection at the table mount location, users have tightened the hand knob screw to a degree that it is then difficult to untighten it later in the clinical workflow. Rotational movement at the table attachment point could result in HFD movement going unnoticed, which could result in a situation where surgical or medical intervention is necessary, a situation where navigation needs to be reestablished, or a situation resulting in extended time under anesthesia for the patient. It may also be difficult to loosen the mount clamp component after use, potentially leading to ergonomic injury or a workaround during equipment teardown.
