Why these products were recalled

The Spectrum WBM may fail to auto-document infusion status information back to the hospital's Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system. This software issue only impacts customers where the Spectrum V8 or Spectrum IQ infusion system is integrated with the hospital s EMR system.

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.
