Therapeutic technologies have shaped the medical industry by delivering treatments that save lives and ameliorate chronic conditions. But many categories of therapeutic devices are prone to high rates of malfunction and recall. Between 2005 and 2010, a reported 4,343 medical devices were recalled in the United States by more than 800 companies across a wide range of therapy categories. Reports of injuries and deaths resulting from failures of infusion pumps prompted the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to launch an “Infusion Pump Improvement Initiative” in 2010; as a result, manufacturers now face tougher regulations in bringing these devices to market.
