  • Cause
    This action is a follow up to the july 2013 communication regarding the synchromed ii priming bolus function and to inform that medtronic is updating the model 8870 software application card as well as the synchromed infusion system labelling to address the issue. the software update will change the value displayed on the 8840 programmer for the synchromed ii pump tubing volume from 0.199 ml to 0.140 ml. over delivery of drug during priming bolus has the potential to lead to overdose symptoms in some patients. this software change mitigates the potential for unintended over-delivery of drug while still ensuring prompt therapy initiation. the synchromed ii infusion system manuals were updated for the priming bolus function, and new guidelines for priming have been implemented.
  • Action
    Doctors are advised to continue to use the current software card and its displayed tubing volume until the Medtronic Representative has exchanged the current card with the new software card (new version is BBU01). New guidelines in labelling regarding priming bolus are identified in the customer letter and the attachment provided with the letter.
