Madeline updated customers and patients on the progress of the program to repair and replace recalled beds": The American company reported seven deaths due to its beds.
"The company attributes these cases to two potential dangers when using the product: fire and the danger of pinching patients between the parts of the bed. As a result Madeline has announced a recall, cease and desist of all of its brand medical beds, rails, mattresses and accessories.
Madeline products were supplied to the United States and Canada from 2011 to 2026. As part of the plan to eliminate identified defects, the company offered customers to repair or replace products, and in some cases refund the full or partial cost. Madeline recommends unplugging beds before repairing or replacing products."
