GE HealthCare subsidiary Datex-Ohmeda is recalling (Class 1) its Giraffe OmniBed and Giraffe OmniBed CareStation to update their use instructions after receiving reports about the warmer heater doors becoming loose. “If doors become loose, a high-priority alarm goes off and canopy movement stops,” a [recall notice](https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/medical-device-recalls/incubatorwarmer-correction-ge-healthcare-updates-use-instructions-giraffe-omnibed-and-giraffe?utm%5Fmedium=email&utm%5Fsource=govdelivery) says. “If users attempt to force the canopy to keep moving, the doors may become damaged and could potentially fall on the patient.” To date, there have been no reported injuries.

The devices are combination infant incubators and warmers that can transition from one mode to the other on demand, but they cannot be operated in both modes at the same time. Incubators and warmers are intended to provide controlled warmth for newborns who are unable to regulate their own body temperatures.
