What the company is doing

On 11/24/2021 and 12/02/2021, the firm emailed customers to inform them of an ongoing investigation a potential dose discrepancy while treating patients in an orientation other than Head First Supine (HFS), i.e., Feet First Supine (FFS) and Head First Prone (HFP) and Feet First Prone (FFP). On 12/22/2021, the firm sent an "Urgent Safety Notification" letter to customers informing them that the Recalling Firm has confirmed that a dose discrepancy exists for patients treated in any orientation other than Head First Supine (HFS).
