SunMed Holdings, LLC has recalled 9,900 units of the AirLife brand Broselow Pediatric Emergency Rainbow Tape (2025 Edition). This pediatric emergency tool, used to determine medical doses based on a child's height and weight, contains incorrect printed information in the Red, Orange, and Grey zones. Because these zones are used to calculate critical life-saving interventions, using the incorrect values could lead to severe medical errors during an emergency. No injuries have been reported, and healthcare providers are advised to stop using the tapes and contact the manufacturer for replacement instructions.
Incorrect values on the tape can lead to children receiving excessive or insufficient shocks or medication doses. This poses a significant risk of cardiac arrest, heart damage, burns, and severe electrolyte imbalances.
Length- and weight-based reference tool specifically designed for pediatric emergency care.
