MalfunctionJul 2, 2021Volume Accuracy Problem; Volume Accuracy Problem
IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE SYRINGE ORAL 5ML CLEAR STERILE WAS INVOLVED WITH THE DEVICE OPERATOR EXPERIENCING GENERAL DISSATISFACTION. THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION WAS PROVIDED BY THE INITIAL REPORTER: UNFORTUNATELY OUR LAB GROUP IS RUNNING INTO ISSUES WITH THE OUTSIDE DIAMETERS ON TWO ENTERAL SYRINGES. OUR MEASUREMENTS ARE SHOWING THAT BOTH ARE OUT OF SPEC WITH THE OD TOO LARGE. SINCE THE PUMPS MEASURE THE OD AND USE IT TO DETERMINE WHAT SIZE SYRINGE IS LOADED THIS DISCREPANCY IS CAUSING ISSUES WITH THE PUMP'S ABILITY TO IDENTIFY THE SYRINGE. I SHOULD NOTE THIS IS SOMETHING WE'RE SEEING IN OUR LAB.
