CareFusion 303, Inc. is recalling 189 BD Alaris Pump Modules (model 8100) because they were programmed with incorrect date and time settings related to daylight savings time. These specific units may fail to connect to hospital networks, which can disrupt the interoperability workflow required for patient care. The recall affects devices with software version 8100BD V12.1.2 and specific serial numbers distributed across four U.S. states.
The incorrect timestamp prevents the pump from communicating properly with the hospital's network. This failure can delay the start of infusion therapy or prevent critical medication data from being transmitted to the patient's electronic health record, potentially leading to treatment errors.
Correction or replacement of units with incorrect software-flashed timestamps.
Quantity affected: 189 devices. Distribution in AZ, IN, OH, and VA.
