Hospira Inc. is recalling 467 units of the Plum A+ Infusion System because the device's fluid shield may fail to prevent liquids from entering the internal components. This fluid ingress can damage the pumping mechanism and sensors, potentially causing the device to fail to recognize installed cassettes or stop functioning during critical infusions. This recall affects various serial numbers under List Number 60529 that were distributed nationwide in the United States.
If fluid enters the device, it can cause electronic or mechanical failure, leading to the interruption of medication delivery or incorrect dosing. This poses a significant risk to patients who rely on the pump for life-sustaining parenteral, enteral, or epidural infusions.
Device inspection and potential repair due to fluid ingress risk.
