Issue

Steris identified through customer complaints that paint from the lighting system's light head may begin to peel or chip over time as a result of routine cleaning procedures. While Steris has not received any reports of paint falling from a lighting system during use, if paint particles were to enter the sterile field or fall onto a patient, this could disrupt the procedure resulting in a procedure delay and/or may present a risk of patient infection.

Separately, on a smaller number of lighting systems, the plus/minus (+/-) buttons that control light intensity on the light heads may detach. If detachment occurs during a patient procedure, the buttons could enter the sterile field and disrupt the procedure resulting in a procedure delay.
