Alaris GP IV pump alert

Intravenous products: The MHRA report "Due to a software irregularity, if the previous set up is not cleared at start-up, the single bubble detection threshold will default to 100 microlitres, without any indication to the user."

"If the desired setting is less than 100 microlitres, there is the potential for serious injury, particularly to neonates. If the desired setting is greater than 100 microlitres, there is the potential for an increase in nuisance alarms."
