Baxter Healthcare Corporation Spectrum IQ Infusion Pump, Product Code 3570009 recall: Baxter has identified that certain pumps have potentially been released

Recall published 1+ years ago

Baxter has identified that certain pumps have potentially been released with the grease applied to the cam and motor gears that will break down quickly. The breakdown of the grease will lead to the device having insufficient or ineffective grease applied to the cam, which could lead to premature wear of the mechanism assembly, resulting in excessive therapy.

The hazard: Device safety concern

The manufacturer or the FDA identified a problem with this device. The model, lot and catalogue numbers are what define the scope.

What the notice says: Baxter has identified that certain pumps have potentially been released with the grease applied to the cam and motor gears that will break down quickly. The breakdown of the grease will lead to the device having insufficient or ineffective grease applied to the cam, which could lead to premature wear of the mechanism assembly, resulting in excessive therapy.

Why it matters: The FDA recorded an enforcement action against this device. Most device recalls are corrections rather than removals, so the device often stays in use while the manufacturer issues a fix.

What to do about Device

Baxter Healthcare Corporation — The manufacturer or the FDA identified a problem with this device. The model, lot and catalogue numbers are what define the scope.

  1. Match the model, catalogue, lot and serial numbers on your device against the identifiers on this page.

  3. Report device problems to the FDA through MedWatch.
  4. If the device is implanted or you depend on it daily, speak to your clinician before changing how you use it.

Who pays for a device recall

The manufacturer funds the remedy. The practical question is usually which link in the chain executes it.

  • If a clinic fitted or supplied the device, start there — they hold the serial-number records the manufacturer needs.
  • Ask for written confirmation that the remedy was applied to your serial number. That is what an insurer or a future clinician will want to see.
  • If you bought it yourself online or from a pharmacy, go to the manufacturer’s recall page rather than the retailer; device claims are handled centrally.
  • Where the remedy is a software update, there is nothing to claim, but do confirm the version changed afterwards.
