Baxter Healthcare Corporation is recalling one unit of the Baxter SIGMA Spectrum Infusion Pump because it was released without properly performed testing. This specific device, identified by serial number 2158913, may not function as intended during medical procedures due to the lack of verified safety checks. The affected pump was distributed to a facility in Florida.
The failure to perform required testing prior to release means the device's accuracy and safety mechanisms have not been confirmed, which could lead to incorrect medication delivery or device failure during critical patient care. No injuries have been reported specifically for this unit, but improper infusion rates can cause serious health complications.
