Reason
The user can reproduce a free-flow condition if the clinician does not close the roller clamp on the iv administration set prior to opening the pump door and the pump door is opened by using a "flick" of the door latch that causes the door to "pop" open instead of opening the door by slowly raising the latch. This flicking motion may cause the centered sear design to not effectively engage with the safety clamp fitment which can cause unintended flow possibly resulting in an over infusion to the patient.
