Maquet XS Flat Screen Monitor Holder Recalled for Grounding Defect

Getinge is recalling six Maquet XS Flat Screen Monitor Holders in Arizona and Texas because they may not meet grounding requirements, posing a risk of electric shock.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states a risk of 'severe/fatal electric shock,' which aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or high-risk hazards warranting a Severe classification.

Plain-English summary

Getinge US Sales LLC is recalling six units of the Maquet XS Flat Screen Monitor Holder, Configuration Part Number ARD268400140A. The affected products were distributed to facilities in Arizona and Texas. The units are identified by serial numbers 1 through 6.

The recall was initiated because the monitor holders might not be compliant with grounding requirements. This non-compliance creates a risk of mild to severe or fatal electric shock under certain conditions when the device is used with a voltage of 100-220V.

The source text does not specify specific actions for consumers or healthcare facilities beyond the recall notice itself. Users of these specific serial numbers should verify their equipment against the recall details provided by the manufacturer.
