Reported risk: The flow rate test verification was not properly executed for certain Sigma Spectrum infusion pumps prior to release. The testing was performed for less than the required minimum run time. Improperly performed flow rate testing may not identify issues with pumps that could cause inaccuracies in flow rates which, in turn, could lead to over- or under- infusion. Potential risk to the patient depends on a number of factors including treatment and patient comorbidities. Depending on these factors, the patient could experience serious adverse health consequences.
