Scale could break and fall potentially causing injuries to someone who is on it. There is a potential for the mast scale load cell ssembly to fracture and allow the mast/boom to fall. Should a patient be in the lift at the time, the patient could fall and sustain injuries.

Arjo sent Urgent Device Recall Customer Notification letters dated 4/1/08 on the BHM Medical letterhead to the end user accounts who received the affected patient lifts with mast scales, advising them of the potential of fracture at the load cell assembly which might cause the scale to fall. Should a patient be in the lift at the time, the patient could fall, potentially sustaining injuries. The accounts were instructed to immediately stop using the patient lifts. A BHM representative will contact the accounts within 5 days to arrange for the correction of the lifts. The accounts will be given the option of returning the lifts for repair (with shipping costs covered by BHM), or purchasing a replacement lift at a significantly reduced price.
