Reported risk: Recall expansion; the infusion pumps have the potential to fail causing inaccurate flow conditions during use. These conditions range from back flow to free flow, which could result in over-infusion. Sigma's evaluation of subsequent complaints involving failed bearings indicated that the loss or degradation of bearing lubricant to be a more significant contributor to bearing failure than initially believed. Based upon the results of the analysis of these additional failures, Sigma determined that any bearings prior to the latest, improved design may be at risk for failure. Sigma decided to expand the recall of the Spectrum Infusion Pumps to include units manufactured from 1/18/2005 through 11/01/2010.
