OptumHealth Care Solutions LLC is recalling 208 units of the Optum Nimbus II Plus Ambulatory Infusion Pump (Model AAA-00170) due to multiple critical failure modes. These devices, manufactured by InfuTronix, are being removed from the market because they can experience battery failures, system errors, drug leaks, and incorrect flow rates. If these pumps fail during use, patients may receive the wrong dose of medication or have their treatment interrupted entirely.
The infusion pump may fail to deliver medication accurately or stop working suddenly due to hardware defects or software errors, which could lead to a life-threatening delay in therapy or an overdose. Specific risks include drug product leakage, damaged pump housing, and flow rates that are either too high or too low.
