Hi Paolo

I don't have any of these pumps so I can't appreciate the problem. Have you actually reported this problem to MDA as they may not be aware. I suggest that everyone that has had problems should also report as one of the things they look for is trends, multiple reporting by various trusts would tell MDA that this is a widespread problem than just a one-off report.

We shouldn't assume MDA already know about it or assume that somebody else has told them. However if Baxter know there is a problem then they are required by law to notify MDA under the vigilance system clause of the Medical Device Directive (remember user reporting is voluntry, manufacturer reporting is MANDATORY).
