Hazard report update. ECRI institute no longer recommends against purchasing curlin CMS and PainSmart infusion pumps
Abstract:
To address the potential for dangerous gravity flow, Curlin Medical recently announced the availability of administration sets with integral antisiphon valves (ASVs) for all of its 2000 Series, 4000 Series, 6000 Series, and PainSmart infusion pumps. The company has indicated that use of these sets nullifies its previous recommendation for hospitals to test the pumps between patients within the hospital setting. Based on these changes, ECRI Institute lifts its earlier recommendation against the purchase of these models. We continue to recommend that facilities purchase and use only integral-ASV sets for all care settings.
