SCM True Air Technologies Recalls ECATS E 850 Bariatric Beds

SCM True Air Technologies is recalling 48 ECATS E 850 Bariatric Beds due to manufacturing documentation and vendor approval failures.

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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text cites documentation and vendor approval failures without reporting any injuries, illnesses, or specific mechanical hazards, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity voluntary precautionary recall.

Plain-English summary

SCM True Air Technologies LLC is recalling 48 units of the ECATS E 850 Bariatric Bed. The recall was initiated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is classified as a Class II recall.

The firm is recalling the products due to lack of design controls, lack of a Device Master Record, and failure to approve specific vendors. These are quality control and documentation issues rather than reported mechanical failures or injuries.
