Recalls of Medication Infusion Pumps
Baxter International Inc. recently announced its withdrawal of a medication delivery pump from the market over the next 12 months as it continues to struggle with problems in its pump business. The withdrawal of the 6060 Multi-Therapy Infusion pump follows Baxter's much larger recall in early 2005 of its Colleague Infusion and Syndeo PCA Syringe pumps, which are used to administer medication in hospitals.
For more information about this and other recalls of Baxter products, see the July 2005 Food and Drug Administration news release.
