- Reason
- 20 Pumps sold to the Finnish market contain a message in which one word in the message is mistranslated. When the user follows a specific set of key presses the pump will display the incorrect message. The message indicates that a Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA) dose is unavailable because the pump is running. It should indicate that the PCA dose is not available because the pump is stopped. The function of the pump is unchanged and no patient injury can occur since no drug is being delivered.
