Hillrom Progressa+ Hospital Beds Recalled for Static Electricity Risk
Hillrom Progressa+ hospital beds (499 units) are being recalled due to potential static electricity buildup that could cause mild shock to operators during transport. The affected units were distributed nationwide.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall with no reported injuries or hospitalizations. The hazard is theoretical—potential static shock described as mild—not realized. Aligns with voluntary precautionary recalls.
Plain-English summary
Baxter Healthcare Corporation is recalling 499 Hillrom Progressa+ hospital beds due to the potential for static electricity buildup from the casters and/or power drive. The recalled product codes are P7501A000016, P7501A000019, P7501A000031, P7501A000032, P7501A000033, P7501A000052, P7501A000053, P7501A000054, P7501A000055, P7501A001851, P7501A001972, P7501A001973, and P7501A001974.
The static electricity buildup could be transferred to operators through the transport handle during bed transport, potentially resulting in a mild static electric shock. This poses a risk to healthcare workers and others operating the affected beds.
The recalled beds were distributed nationwide in California, Florida, Indiana, Massachusetts, New York, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia. Affected facilities should stop using the affected beds and contact Baxter Healthcare Corporation for further instructions or a replacement unit.
