Recalled Products

Titan Surgical Table

Reason

Manufacturer has become aware of unintended movement occurring during surgical cases due to the use of damaged titan remotes. There is a possibility that damage can occur to a remote control, which breaks the button, and can cause permanent or sporadic electrical conduction and trigger unintended movement. This is a rare event and can be avoided by proper handling and maintenance of the remote control. The product is safe as long as it is not damaged.
