Medline Industries, LP is conducting a Class I device recall (Z-1013-2026) for their Full Electric Basic Homecare Beds due to a potential hazard involving the hand control pendant and associated wires. This recall is classified as Class I by the FDA, signifying that use of or exposure to the affected product may cause serious adverse health consequences or death. The issue arises from potential failure of the hand control pendant and wires under specific, atypical conditions such as exceeding the weight limit or encountering obstructions.

Companies that have distributed these beds, particularly in the US, Canada, Pennsylvania, Guam, and the Virgin Islands, must ensure they have implemented Medline's recall procedures. While the document does not specify a compliance deadline, affected parties should review Medline's recall instructions and take appropriate action to mitigate risks to patients. Failure to comply with recall procedures could result in further regulatory action from the FDA.
