Product
Hillrom LikoScale component, Product Code 3156232, used with the following adapter kits for patient lifts: 1) LikoScale 200 Accessory - Product Code 3156225; 2) LikoScale 350 Accessory - Product Code 3156228; 3) LikoScale 400 Accessory - Product Code 3156226.
Why was it recalled?
The Q-link 13 could allow for an improper attachment (false latching) of the Quick-Release Hook used on Sling Bars and other accessories. This could result in a critical injury from a patient fall as the false latched component may initially bear weight but can loosen from the Q-link resulting in a detachment and drop.
