Why these products were recalled

A medical device correction is being issued for SIGMA Spectrum Infusion System (V8 Platform) and Spectrum IQ Infusion System with Dose IQ Safety Software infusion pumps due to an increase in reported false upstream occlusion alarms following upgrades to software versions v8.01.01 and v9.02.01.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
