Arrow recalls disposable pain control pumps with possible cracks in fill port connectors that may cause leaks, leading to reduced pain relief and needing extra medication.
Possible cracks on the body of the fill port connector, which may result in a leak. If the leak is identified while the user is filling the pump, there may be a delay while an alternative pump is located. If the leak goes undetected it may result in a reduced level of drug delivery to the patient and consequently a lower level of pain relief than that prescribed or expected. This may result in the need for other, additional analgesic drug administration.
