It was reported that the patient's wife could not replace the batteries of a cadd-legacy® duodopa pump because the battery compartment would not open.The pump displayed a "batteries low" message.It was reported that the patient fell "some time ago", and wondered if the fall could be linked to the error message.The patient's wife later reported that the pump gave an alarm with three tunes every five minutes.It is unclear whether that alarm was a high pressure alarm or a low battery alarm.The patient's wife still was unable to open the compartment to replace the batteries, however, the pump still displayed "running".The patient's wife later reported the same issue; low batteries, compartment stuck, pump running.The patient was provided with a new pump.No injury was reported.
