GE HealthCare has become aware that the bedside panel of Care Plus, Care Plus Model 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000 Incubator, Lullaby Incubator, Lullaby TR Incubator, and Lullaby XP Incubator can be upright and look closed but not be latched if the red indicator is visible. The portholes also can look closed when not latched when the portholes are obstructed e.g., hood covers. If a patient impacts the bedside panel or porthole that is not latched, the panel can disengage and fall open, no longer protecting the patient from falling.
Knee batteries may need replacement with conforming batteries to ensure there isn't a failure to turn on the device, or an unexpected shutdown, which is a momentary loss of power to the knee where the user may experience loss of support that can lead to a fall and potential injury.
