Reason
Hill-Rom has received thirteen reports over the past 8 year from facilities in the USA alleging that the Affinity Four lift-off foot section has fallen resulting in three minor injuries. Analysis suggests that the latch mechanism may have been bent due to user error during handling of the foot section, such as dropping it to the floor.
