ICU Medical, Inc. has issued a recall for LifeShield Drug Library Management (DLM) and LifeShield Infusion Safety Software Suite (v2.2.1) affecting 7 customers. The software's "Change Summary" review option may stop working correctly after a library migration, which could result in medical professionals failing to identify changes in drug settings. If not corrected, this can lead to incorrect medication delivery speeds or delays in setting up infusion pumps for patients.
The software defect may cause infusion pumps to deliver too much or too little medication, or delay treatment. These medication errors can lead to serious adverse health consequences depending on the drug being administered.
Issue affects customers who migrated from LifeShield DLM v2.1x to LifeShield DLM v2.2.1 and have any version of a Plum Duo v1.1 drug library that was approved or locked for review before the migration.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
