Grifols Dosi-Fuser elastomeric pump issues?

Hello,
For folks who use the Grifols Dosi-Fuser portable elastomeric infusion pump, I'm curious if anyone is experiencing quality issues.

Since late August, we have had #59 reported over- and under-infusion events. These are occuring mostly with fluorouracil. Our patient selection, staff, dosing, volumes, etc are all unchanged. The only potential cause we can identify is that the manufacturer had a change in sensor production mid-August.

Grifols is telling us that they have not had similar reports, but I'm somewhat surprised given the volume of problems we are suddenly experiencing.

Thanks so much
-Jeff
