Reason for Recall |
The recall was initiated because I Flow became aware that a small percentage of ON-Q Pump with Select A Flow may develop a minor leak with a flow rate controller. There may be consequences for the patient, such as under delivery of pain medication or the need to prematurely remove the pump, which would result in loss of the pain treatment provided by the pump.
