Plain-English summary
B Braun Medical Inc is recalling the Perfusor Space Syringe Pump, Model 8713031U. The wireless infusion pump was distributed nationwide in the United States and to Canada, affecting approximately 9,943 units.
The pump's instructions previously identified Cardinal Health Monoject syringes as an option for use. Manufacturing changes to these syringes have made them incompatible with the pump and may prevent proper recognition of the syringe.
The incompatibility may result in pump performance issues including medication overdose, underdose, delay in therapy, delay in occlusion alarms, and delay in feeding. Cardinal Health Monoject syringes are no longer compatible with the Perfusor Space Syringe Pump.
Anyone using the Perfusor Space Syringe Pump should be aware that Cardinal Health Monoject syringes may not work properly with the device. Consult a healthcare provider regarding compatible syringe options.
