MR SURGICAL SUITE II TABLE
Reason
Potential safety issue with the table transfer release of the MR SURGICAL SUITE II MR System. The issue may cause an unexpected function loss of the patient transfer mechanism that allows the patient to be moved between the MR and surgical tables. This could delay care and handling of a patient during surgical or interventional procedures. GE has received one complaint of a transfer board not releasing from the MR table preventing the transfer board from moving to the surgical table. There have been no injuries reported as a result of this issue.
