Transport Stretcher 747 distributed to home users without professional training

What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II medical device recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. However, the device was designed exclusively for use by trained healthcare professionals in facilities but has been distributed to home users who may not understand safety-critical operational instructions, presenting a potential risk of patient injury from improper use. This risk-of-harm scenario without reported injuries corresponds to a High severity classification.
Plain-English summary
Stryker Medical Division is recalling the Transport Stretcher 747 (Part Number 0747000000), a non-powered, wheeled device designed to support patients in a horizontal position during transport.
The device is intended for use in healthcare facilities. However, units were distributed to residential customers in the United States and internationally, including Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, India, Mexico, and Thailand. While the product labeling accurately identifies the correct use environment, home users may not be aware of or fully understand these instructions, which were designed for healthcare professionals. This mismatch between intended use and actual distribution creates a safety risk.
The recall addresses the risks associated with improper use by untrained home users who may lack the professional knowledge necessary to operate the device safely.
