Why it was recalled

Large Volume Pump Software, version 5.9.2 and earlier has potential for the following anomalies: 1. The pump may become nonfunctional if during an alarm condition the Pause Audio option is repeated 70 time or more. 2. If a secondary infusion is started at the exact moment a primary infusion completes and VTBI reaches 0, it will switch to primary. The primary infusion will infuse at the previously programed primary rate and continue until the infusion is stopped or the bag is empty.
