An investigation was carried out into this complaint. When reviewing similar reportable events for system 2000 we have found a very low number of other similar cases - tub was tipping during use due to misuse. The device was being used for the patient therapy. The caregiver did not notice that sharp container was situated under the bath. While caregiver was lowering the bath onto obstruction bath tilted forwards and in that way contributed to the event. The bath was according to the specification in time when the event occurred. The device was in good working condition. The customer was managed to recreate the event. All devices are equipped with instruction for use, which clearly inform how to correct use and maintenance the bath. Instruction for use for system 2000 contains warnings which clearly inform that: "to avoid entrapment of the patients or caregivers legs or feet, make sure that they are kept clear of all obstacles. " "to avoid the device in use from tipping, do not raise or lower other equipment close to it and be aware of stationary object when lowering. " according to the above the device was found to have been to specification when the event took a place. It can be established that bath was being used for patient handling but it appears it contributed to the event likely due to a use error the device was according to specification when the event occurred. The device was in good working condition. The bath tilted forward due to contact with obstruction. Please note, that if caregiver would have followed every guideline given in instruction for use there would have been no user at risk.
