Description

ON-Q PainBuster with OnDemand (270 ml, 2 ml/hr + 5 ml bolus /60 min refill), Model PMB01, I-Flow Corporation, Lake Forest, CA 92630 U.S.A.

Reason

Misassembly: The ON-Q PainBuster PMB01 package may contain a Soaker catheter instead of a Non-Soaker catheter. As a result, the bolus button may remain latched in the down position which may cause the the device to deliver continuously at 7 ml/hr instead of 2 ml/hr.
