Del Medical sent a "Field Correction Recall" letter with an acknowledgement form to the direct account dealers/assemblers on January 12, 2009 - February 4, 2009, informing them that required maintenance inspection of a retaining ring inside the column assembly may not be performed as required. If the retaining ring is not regularly inspected and replaced when worn or loose, there is the potential for the supporting cable to become detached from the column causing the column to fall and possibly contact the patient or operator. The accounts were requested to locate the affected systems and immediately take them out of service until correction by installing a Cable Mount Retention Retrofit Kit to eliminate the potential for the cable to become detached. Affected accounts were instructed to complete the enclosed acknowledgement form and return it via fax (847-288-7911) or mail to Del Medical. If there are any questions, please contact Del Medical Technical Support at 800-800-6006 or 847-288-7000.
