   Baxter Healthcare Corporation is issuing an Urgent Medical Device Correction for the PST 500 U Precision Surgical Table due to a potential issue with loose spring pins in the spindle drives. This can cause the tabletop to unexpectedly tilt or move at any time, even without active use of the surgical table. This could potentially result in unintentional patient movement during surgical procedures and/or preparation for surgical procedures, including transport.
