Staff can be injured by sudden drop of GCX VHM wall mounts.

Under certain circumstances, variable height mounts (VHMs) manufactured by GCX Corporation-which are used to support physiologic monitors and displays-may unexpectedly drop to the wall mount support arm's lowest position, presenting the risk of staff injury or equipment damage. Hospitals can reduce the likelihood of this hazard by carrying out the company's recommended twice-annual inspection and by leaving the mount's height-locking lever disengaged during routine use.
