  • Causa
    Bd has received complaints concerning an increase in the occurrence of occlusion alarms with the bd plastipak™ 50ml luer lok syringes. the root cause has been determined to be increased plunger rod forces primarily due to the interaction between the syringe barrel and the rubber stopper. initially bd recommended a change in the settings of the syringe pumps. however, investigation after continued complaints were received has revealed that it was not technically feasible to change the pump settings on some types of syringe pumps. bd has redesigned the syringe plunger to reduce the plunger forces required.
