Dear Miss Thistlethwaite,   

Thank you for the Regulation 28 report of  11th April 2025 sent to the Department of 
Health and Social Care about the death of Mrs Susan Marion Lakin. I am replying as 
the Minister with responsibility for adult social care.  

Firstly, I would like to say how saddened I was to read of the circumstances of  Mrs 
Lakin’s  tragic  death,  and  I  offer  my  sincere  condolences  to  her  loved  ones.  The 
circumstances your report describes are very concerning and I am grateful to you for 
bringing these matters to my attention.  

The report raises concerns over the advertisement and sale of the lap belt products 
which led to Mrs Lakin’s death, and the lack of warning and information around the 
dangers that could arise from their use. Officials within the Department of Health and 
Social Care have considered these concerns and concluded that the responsibility for 
these  concerns  sits  within  another  organisation.  I  understand  the  Medicines  and 
Healthcare  products  Regulatory  Agency  (MHRA)  is  also  responding  to  your  report, 
and I hope that their response will be helpful.  

I will be writing to the Office of Product Safety and Standards with my deep concerns 
about the product in question. You may also like to make the  OPSS aware of your 
concerns. 

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.   

Yours sincerely, 

MINISTER OF STATE

Dear Miss Thistlethwaite 

I am the Deputy Chief Executive for Regulation at the Office for Product Safety and 
Standards (OPSS), responding to your Prevention of Future Deaths report into the fatality of 
72-year-old Susan Lakin, involving an ORTONES support belt for wheelchairs and 
armchairs. I was very sorry to hear of this tragic fatality, and if you have the opportunity, 
please pass on my condolences to Mrs Lakin’s family.  

As explained in their response to your report, the Medicines and Healthcare products 
Regulatory Agency (MHRA) informed OPSS of this case earlier in the year and shared 
details regarding the circumstances of Mrs Lakin’s death, the product involved and the 
businesses identified. Since being made aware, OPSS has taken a range of actions in 
relation to these and similar products, which I have set out below.  

OPSS has confirmed the position advised by MHRA that the ORTONES Wheelchair and 
Geriatric Armchair Belt Restraint is not in scope of the healthcare products regulatory regime, 
and is instead covered by the General Product Safety Regulations 2005 (the 2005 
Regulations). The 2005 Regulations require businesses to ensure that consumer products 
placed on the UK market are safe, and that potential risks associated with their use have 
been mitigated or reduced as far as possible. This includes by providing appropriate 
instructions for safe use, information about restrictions on use, and any relevant warnings. 
The 2005 Regulations apply where there are not sector specific regulations. 

OPSS can confirm that the relevant businesses (the manufacturer, Eurobaston, and 
Comercial Nespral, the distributor of the product in the UK), have undertaken the following 
corrective action to address the risks posed by the products: 

•  provided updated information in the instructions regarding the product’s potential 
risks, and issued this to customers who had already purchased the product; 
• 
removed the product from sale via Amazon; 
•  withdrawn the product from the UK market.  

The distributor submitted a product notification to OPSS as required by Regulation 9 of the 
GPSR. This publicises the risk posed by the product and the mitigating actions taken by the 
manufacturer.  

These steps should ensure the product is no longer available to purchase in the UK. On 31 
October, OPSS published a product safety report for the ORTONES belt on the Product 

The  Office  for  Product  Safety  and  Standards  (OPSS)  delivers  consumer  protection  and  supports  business 
confidence, productivity and growth. It is part of the Department for Business and Trade. 

gov.uk/opss 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 Recalls and Alerts gov.uk website, to raise awareness of consumers, businesses and other 
regulators to this product’s risks, and the corrective action taken by the business. 

Alongside the steps to reduce the risk to consumers posed by the ORTONES belt, OPSS 
has been gathering wider intelligence into wheelchair/armchair support belt products. There 
is a broad range of similar support belts and harnesses available to UK consumers, supplied 
via online marketplaces and by specialist retailers. This review did not find any evidence of 
product safety concerns raised by Trading Standards or Citizens Advice, and OPSS had not 
received notifications about support belts to our Product Safety Database from other 
regulators. 

However, OPSS noted that the MHRA recorded 29 medical incidents involving these product 
types since 2014, resulting in one fatality and 20 injuries. We also found that the British 
Standards Institution referred to four fatalities in the 15 years prior to introducing the relevant 
product standard BS EN 8625:2019. Further, in our research into similar products available 
on the market today, OPSS established that certain items, intended to aid people who may 
have mobility or strength impairments, were accompanied by instructions for safe use that 
require levels of physical ability that might be beyond people with such impairments. These 
products may not be safe if used without help or supervision, but many products did not carry 
reasonable warnings to raise awareness of, or address, this risk. 

On this basis, OPSS is taking further action on this product category. We have written to 
major online marketplaces, including Amazon, eBay, Temu, Shein and Alibaba, to make 
them aware that certain products may not be provided with suitable instructions or warnings 
to assure safe use by likely users. This will assist online marketplaces to identify whether 
these products are available on their platforms and take action to update or remove relevant 
listings. OPSS has also alerted online marketplaces to our Product Safety Report published 
for the ORTONES belt to make clear this product should not be supplied. OPSS has 
highlighted our activity for these products to relevant stakeholders, including Age UK and the 
Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents. 

OPSS is continuing to monitor the available evidence and engage with retailers and 
manufacturers in the UK, to ensure products are supplied with clear and appropriate 
instructions and warnings and do not pose a risk when they are used normally and 
foreseeably. 

I hope this information is helpful and provides evidence of OPSS’s commitment to protecting 
consumers, following your Prevention of Future Deaths report into the tragic death of Mrs 
Lakin. I would be grateful, should you have the opportunity, if you would share this with the 
family. 

Kind regards,

Dear Miss Thistlethwaite, 

Regulation 28: Inquest to investigate the death of Mrs Susan Marion LAKIN.  

We acknowledge your Regulation 28 prevention of future death report, received by MHRA 
on 11 April 2025, relating to the conclusions of the inquest investigating the sad death of 
Susan Marion Lakin. We would like to offer our sincere condolences to her family.  

Your report raises the following concerns: 

•  The sale of Support Belts that contain no warnings in relation to the risks of physical 

restraint, tissue viability risks and finally the risk of strangulation. 

•  The sale of Support Belts that contain no suggestion that the product should be used 

or fitted under the guidance/supervision of a therapist or medical professional. 

•  Support Belts, and other seemingly basic pieces of healthcare equipment, are readily 
available for people to purchase online without them being appraised of the risks that 
come with their use. 

I have taken the opportunity to provide you with some supporting information below, before 
providing comments to your matters of concern. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is an executive agency 
of the Department of Health and Social Care (“DHSC”). We are the regulator of medicines, 
medical devices and blood components for transfusion in the UK.  

With  respect  to  medical  devices,  one  major  area  of  the  MHRA’s  responsibilities  is  the 
investigation of adverse incidents. An adverse incident is an event involving a medical device, 
which  produces,  or  has  the  potential  to  produce,  unwanted  effects  involving  the  safety  of 
patients, users and other persons. 

The MHRA operates a voluntary reporting scheme, called the Yellow Card scheme 1, where 
health professionals and members of the public can report adverse incidents to us directly. 
Additionally,  manufacturers  of  medical  devices  are  required  to  report  details  of  all  serious 
incidents involving medical devices to the MHRA as part of their mandatory vigilance reporting.  

Where  serious  incidents  involving  medical  devices  have  been  reported  to  other  authorities 
including the police and coroners, the MHRA provides input if required. The MHRA will then 
ensure any concerns raised from these investigations, if required, are disseminated to either 
healthcare  professionals  directly  or  to  healthcare  institutions  to  help  to  prevent  further 
incidents and take up the concerns directly with the manufacturer of the medical device. 

Manufacturers placing a medical device on the market are required to identify the potential 
hazards associated with the use of the medical device, evaluate the related risks and 
eliminate or reduce these risks as far as possible; finally users of the device must be 
informed of any residual risks. Manufacturers are expected to follow the principles set out in 
BS EN ISO 14971:2019+A11:2021 Medical devices - Application of risk management to 
medical devices. This approach aims to also ensure that any new risks are incorporated into 
risk management process therefore facilitating ongoing improvement throughout the 
product’s lifecycle. 

Manufacturers should also demonstrate how their devices meet the relevant 
Designated/Harmonized Standards. If they have not applied these standards, then they must 
provide a description of the solutions adopted to fulfil the requirements which apply to the 
devices.  This information should be included within their technical documentation for 
the devices. 

It is important to note that the MHRA does not conduct inspections of medical devices, nor 
do we directly authorise or certify medical devices for placement onto the market. However, 
all medical devices are required to be registered with the MHRA prior to selling them in the 
UK. 

Each  medical  device  is  assigned  a  classification  (I,  IIa,  IIb  or  III)  based  largely  upon  its 
considered  “risk”  factor  to  the  patient  according  to  medical  device  classification  rules  in 
the Medical Devices Regulations 2002 (SI 2002 No 618, as amended) (UK MDR 2002)2. To 
place  a  medical  device  on  the  market,  manufacturers  must  obtain  certification  that 
demonstrates their conformity to the regulatory requirements 3. This certification is represented 
as a CE or UKCA mark and is displayed on the medical device itself. To gain CE or UKCA

3 Regulating medical devices in the UK - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 marking,  the  higher  risk  (class  IIa,  IIb  and  III)  devices  need  to  be  certified  by  an  approved 
conformity assessment body. Whereas manufacturers of the lowest risk/class devices (class 
I) self-certify against the requirements in relevant legislation. 4 

Background 

In April 2015 the MHRA released Medical Device Alert (MDA/2015/018), for all posture or 
safety belts fitted to supportive seating5. The Alert stated, “Using the wrong type of belt or a 
belt that isn’t fitted or adjusted properly can lead to serious injury or death of the person 
using the equipment.” 

The Alert goes on to explain that all users and carers need to have received training on how 
to check, adjust, clean, and maintain each device; and individuals need to be reviewed to 
check that the right type of belt is used and adjusted correctly. 

Finally, the alert clarifies that the problems associated with these devices include “the person 
in the seat slipping down and suffering positional asphyxiation or strangulation...”. The 
targeted audience was those involved in the provision, prescription, use and maintenance of 
the belts and it was cascaded through the Central Alerting System (CAS). This was 
withdrawn in 2022 as the number of reports had reduced to zero and the actions should 
have been incorporated into good practice within the NHS. 

Action undertaken by MHRA to date 

Establishment of the appropriate Regulator 
On receipt of the regulation 28 letter we sought further confirmation that the support belt 
purchased by Mrs Lakin’s family was the ORTONES Wheelchair and Geriatric Armchair Belt 
Restraint, reference D2100 (henceforth referred to the ORTONES belt).  

Through our investigations, the manufacturer Eurobaston S.L, confirmed that the ORTONES 
belt is marketed as a class I medical device in Spain, however they had not registered the 
ORTONES belt with the MHRA, which is a legal requirement for all medical devices sold in 
the UK. They informed us that they were unaware that their distributor, Comercial Nespral 
S.L, was selling the product in the UK. Comercial Nespral S.L, has confirmed that the 
ORTONES belt is no longer marketed in the UK.  

The MHRA’s Borderline team have reviewed the intended use and claims of the ORTONES 
belt and concluded that wheelchair belts are unlikely to meet the definition of a medical 
device in their own right, as the intended purpose is to prevent accidents and falls, which is 
not considered to be a medical purpose.  

We also considered whether the belt would meet the definition of an accessory to a medical 
device. An “accessory” to a medical device, as defined by regulation 5(1) of the UK MDR, 
means a product which, whilst not itself a medical device, is intended specifically by its 
manufacturer to be used together with a medical device, to enable that device to be used in 
accordance with its intended use. Wheelchair belts are considered accessories if they are 
specifically designed by the manufacturer for use in conjunction with a specific wheelchair, 

4 Guidance on Class I medical devices - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) 
5 Medical Device Alert 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 and the manufacturer of the wheelchair has evidenced in their instructions for use that their 
wheelchair cannot fulfil its intended purpose without the belt.  

In considering the Instructions for Use for the ORTONES belt (Annex A), we do not consider 
it would be classified as an accessory to a medical device based on the following: 

1.  There are no claims that the belt is intended to be used with a specific wheelchair  
2.  The belt seems to be designed for general use as it is also promoted for use on non-

medical products (armchairs) 

3.  The intended use is stated to provide “maximum support and safety: It is designed to 
bring maximum comfort to the user of a wheelchair. Provides extra support to prevent 
accidents and falls”, which is not a medical purpose 

It is worth noting that in the UK, not all products which are used in a healthcare environment, 
by a disabled person, or by a healthcare professional or carer, qualify as medical devices. 

It should be noted that wheelchairs may come already supplied with a belt, and in these 
cases, the belt is a component of the wheelchair and the wheelchair as a whole, including 
the belt, is regulated as a medical device. 

In addition to the concerns regarding the ORTONES belt, we have identified several other 
supportive belts that are sold online that do not appear to be registered with the MHRA. 
However, they also make general claims, similar to the ORTONES belt, and are therefore 
unlikely to qualify as medical devices or accessories to a medical device. 

Given this, the MHRA has advised the relevant regulator, the Office of Product Safety and 
Standards (OPSS), to ensure that they are aware of your concerns.  

Warnings. 
We have reviewed the ISO standard for Selection, placement and fixation of flexible postural 
support devices in seating (part 15 of the wheelchair seating series): ISO/TS 16840‑15:2024. 
The purpose of this standard is to specify the criteria to be applied to positioning supports 
when used in seating systems and chairs. 

According to ISO/TS 16840‑15:2024, flexible postural support devices (PSD) shall be 
prescribed for safety when the primary purpose is to protect the occupant from 
injury (e.g. to prevent falling from the seat), and occupants should be assessed as to the 
correct style and size of PSD to be prescribed. The standard also covers the safety 
information to be included in the user instructions for use; for example “any special 
requirements as to who can prescribe and fit a postural support”, the “need for any periodic 
checking the occupant’s skin for associated pressure injuries” and “the risks of strangulation 
due to poor positioning”. 

The MHRA reviewed the instructions for use for the ORTONES belt (see attached 
document). While they did not contain the warnings required in the standard, as the belt is 
not considered a medical device or accessory to a medical device, addressing this is outside 
the MHRA’s remit. However, this information will be highlighted to OPSS as the relevant 
regulator.  

Prevalence of the problem 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 There are many other supportive belt devices that are registered with the MHRA as medical 
devices. We reviewed the MHRA’s adverse incident database for cases involving support 
belts that were reported to us between 1 April 2015 to 23 April 2025 following the release of 
the alert in 2015. The broad device code ‘Wheelchair accessory’ was used in the search, 
which includes types of wheelchair/chair/stander occupant restraint/support devices.  

This search generated 398 reports, twenty-nine (29) of which specifically detailed the use of 
a support belt, one of which resulted in a fatality. See Table 1 for a breakdown of these 
incident reports.

 Twenty-two (22) out of twenty-nine (29) reported incidents took place between 2014 and 
2018. We note that Mrs Lakin’s case had not been reported to us prior to receiving the 
Regulation 28 report, and recognise that adverse incident reports for products not regulated 
as medical devices, would not be reported to the MHRA. 

Further action to be undertaken by MHRA 

Eurobaston S.L has committed to the re-evaluation of the ORTONES belt design, labelling 
and instructions for use. Eurobaston S.L have informed us that they will be working with 
Comercial Nespral S.L to determine what corrective actions can be implemented for 
ORTONES belts that have been distributed in the UK.  
The MHRA will inform OPSS of this ongoing investigation into the sale of support belts 
without the appropriate warnings, including the ORTONES belt. In addition, we will include 
OPSS in our communications with the Eurobaston S.L, to assess the appropriateness of 
their corrective actions. 

Any wheelchair belts which would fall under the definition of a medical device or accessory 
and are not registered with the MHRA will be referred to the MHRA’s compliance team. 

Conclusion 

Pending the conclusion of the investigation and actions detailed above, we will continue to 
monitor all adverse incidence reports we receive and take any necessary action as 
appropriate.   

Yours sincerely, 

Chief Safety Officer

WHEELCHAIR BELT
The  Abdominal  belt  has  maximum  support  and  safety:  It  is  designed  to  provide  maximum  comfort  to  the  user  of  a 
wheelchair, geriatric chair or armchair. It provides extra support to prevent accidents and falls. It minimises the possibility 
of the patient falling and suffering injuries, tipping or slipping.

CINTURON SILLA DE RUEDAS
El cinturón Abdominal tiene máxima sujeción y seguridad: Está diseñado para conseguir aportar la comodidad máxima 
al usuario de una Silla de Ruedas, Silla Geriátrica o Sillón. Aporta una sujeción extra para prevenir accidentes y caídas. 
Reduce al mínimo la posibilidad de que el paciente se caiga y pueda sufrir lesiones, se ladee o se resbale.

INDICATIONS FOR USE
Suitable for people with reduced mobility, wheelchair and geriatric chair users, who require extra support to prevent falls 
and fronto-lateral slipping in a seated position.
The belts must be adjusted to the user's anatomy, so that they are tight enough to effectively hold the user in the chair, 
but not too tight to avoid injuries or lacerations.
For this purpose, the length of the fastening straps has to be adjusted in advance by means of the movable adjustment 
of the locking part of the plastic trident. The belt should be fastened at the back of the backrest of the wheelchair so that 
the user is secured to the backrest.
In the case of the perineal straps, pass the lower strap through the perineal area between the thighs. On the back side 
of the backrest, join both ends of the abdominal straps by means of a locking system, tightening both straps until the 
desired fastening is obtained, then fasten the perineal strap and adjust it.

INDICACIONES DE USO
Indicado para personas con movilidad reducida, usuarios de silla de ruedas y sillón geriátrico, que requieran un extra de 
sujeción para evitar caídas y deslizamientos fronto-laterales en posición de sedestación.
Los cinturones se han de ajustar a la anatomía del usuario, de forma que queden lo suficientemente ajustados para que 
lo sujeten efectivamente a la silla, pero no demasiado apretados para evitar lesiones o laceraciones.
Para ello, se ha de regular previamente la longitud de las cinchas de sujeción mediante el ajuste móvil de la parte del 
cierre del tridente de plástico. El cierre del cinturón se ha de realizar por la parte posterior del respaldo de la silla de 
forma que el usuario quede sujeto al mismo.
En  el  caso  de  los  perineales,  pase  la  cincha  inferior  por  la  zona  perineal  entre  los  muslos.  Por  la  cara  posterior  del 
respaldo una ambos extremos de las cinchas abdominales mediante sistema de cierre tensando ambas cinchas hasta 
obtener la sujeción deseada, seguidamente fije la cincha perineal procediendo a su ajuste.

NETTOYAGE ET DÉSINFECTION
■  Nettoyez  uniquement  avec  de  l'eau  et  du  savon  neutre.  Il  n'est  pas  recommandé  d'utiliser  :  du  chlore,  de  l'eau 

ROLLSTUHLGURT
Der Bauchgurt bietet maximalen Halt und Sicherheit: Er ist so konzipiert, dass er dem Benutzer eines Rollstuhls, eines 
geriatrischen Stuhls oder eines Sessels maximalen Komfort bietet. Er bietet zusätzlichen Halt, um Unfälle und Stürze zu 
vermeiden. Er minimiert die Möglichkeit, dass der Patient stürzt und sich Verletzungen zuzieht, kippt oder ausrutscht.

ANWENDUNGSGEBIETE
Geeignet  für  Personen  mit  eingeschränkter  Mobilität,  Rollstuhlfahrer  und  geriatrische  Patienten,  die  zusätzliche 
Unterstützung benötigen, um Stürze und ein Ausrutschen im Sitzen zu verhindern.
Die Gurte müssen an die Anatomie des Benutzers angepasst werden, so dass sie eng genug sind, um den Benutzer 
effektiv im Stuhl zu halten, aber nicht zu eng, um Verletzungen oder Schnittwunden zu vermeiden.
Zu  diesem  Zweck  muss  die  Länge  der  Befestigungsgurte  im  Voraus  mit  Hilfe  der  beweglichen  Einstellung  des 
Verschlussteils  des  Kunststoffdreizacks  angepasst  werden.  Der  Gurt  sollte  an  der  Rückseite  der  Rückenlehne  des 
Rollstuhls befestigt werden, damit der Benutzer an der Rückenlehne gesichert ist.
Bei den Dammgurten ist der untere Gurt durch den Dammbereich zwischen den Oberschenkeln zu führen. Verbinden 
Sie auf der Rückseite der Rückenlehne die beiden Enden der Bauchgurte mit Hilfe eines Verschlusssystems und ziehen 
Sie beide Gurte fest, bis die gewünschte Befestigung erreicht ist; befestigen Sie dann den Dammgurt und stellen Sie ihn 
ein.

REFÉRÉNCE

CEINTURE POUR FAUTEUIL ROULANT
La ceinture abdominale offre un maximum de soutien et de sécurité : elle est conçue pour offrir un maximum de confort 
à l'utilisateur d'un fauteuil roulant, d'une chaise gériatrique ou d'un fauteuil. Elle offre un soutien supplémentaire pour 
prévenir les accidents et les chutes. Elle minimise les risques de chute et de blessure, de basculement ou de glissement 
du patient.

INDICATIONS D'UTILISATION
Convient  aux  personnes  à  mobilité  réduite,  aux  utilisateurs  de  fauteuils  roulants  et  de  chaises  gériatriques,  qui  ont 
besoin d'un soutien supplémentaire pour prévenir les chutes et les glissements fronto-latéraux en position assise.
Les  ceintures  doivent  être  ajustées  à  l'anatomie  de  l'utilisateur,  de  sorte  qu'elles  soient  suffisamment  serrées  pour 
maintenir efficacement l'utilisateur dans le fauteuil, mais pas trop pour éviter les blessures ou les lacérations.
À cette fin, la longueur des sangles de fixation doit être réglée à l'avance au moyen de l'ajustement mobile de la partie 
de verrouillage du trident en plastique. La ceinture doit être fixée à l'arrière du dossier du fauteuil roulant de manière à 
ce que l'utilisateur soit attaché au dossier.
Dans le cas des sangles périnéales, passez la sangle inférieure dans la zone périnéale entre les cuisses. Sur la face 
arrière  du  dossier,  joindre  les  deux  extrémités  des  sangles  abdominales  au  moyen  d'un  système  de  verrouillage,  en 
serrant les deux sangles jusqu'à obtenir la fixation souhaitée, puis fixer la sangle périnéale et l'ajuster.

CINTURA PER SEDIA A ROTELLE
La cintura addominale offre il massimo sostegno e sicurezza: è progettata per offrire il massimo comfort all'utente di una 
sedia a rotelle, di una sedia geriatrica o di una poltrona. Fornisce un sostegno supplementare per prevenire incidenti e 
cadute. Riduce al minimo la possibilità che il paziente cada e subisca lesioni, si ribalti o scivoli.

INDICAZIONI PER L'USO
Indicato per persone con mobilità ridotta, utenti di sedie a rotelle e poltrone geriatriche, che necessitano di un supporto 
extra per prevenire cadute e scivolamenti fronto-laterali in posizione seduta.
Le cinture devono essere regolate in base all'anatomia dell'utente, in modo che siano sufficientemente strette per tenere 
efficacemente l'utente sulla sedia, ma non troppo per evitare lesioni o lacerazioni.
A tal fine, la lunghezza delle cinghie di fissaggio deve essere regolata in anticipo mediante la regolazione mobile della 
parte di bloccaggio del tridente di plastica. La cintura deve essere fissata sul retro dello schienale della carrozzina in 
modo che l'utente sia assicurato allo schienale.
Nel  caso  delle  cinghie  perineali,  far  passare  la  cinghia  inferiore  attraverso  l'area  perineale  tra  le  cosce.  Sul  lato 
posteriore dello schienale, unire le due estremità delle cinghie addominali mediante un sistema di bloccaggio, stringendo 
entrambe le cinghie fino a ottenere il fissaggio desiderato, quindi allacciare la cinghia perineale e regolarla.
