Under certain conditions, the pump may not display a soft limit alert, and will not notify the clinician of a soft limit violation before confirming and starting delivery. This may potentially lead to under- or over-delivery.
Plum Solo and Duo Infusion pumps include a feature, that when selected, automatically flushes the downstream line after a piggyback therapy. The programmed flush volume is delivered from the primary line container at the piggyback therapy rate after the piggyback therapy is complete. In certain cases, as described below, the clinician may receive an Upper Hard Limit (UHL) or Lower Hard Limit (LHL) Violation message when programming a piggyback flush, which prevents the flush from being programmed.
Needle free access device intended as accessory to vascular access used in hemodialysis or accessory to intravascular administration sets has a silicone seal which may bulge at the top, separate from the body, tear; may result in fluid leaks, occluded fluid flow, inability to inject/withdraw blood product, delayed/interrupted therapy, exposure to biological contaminants, air infused into the body

Affected lots of syringes may have a crack on the syringe collar, which may lead to delayed or repeated blood draw/fluid delivery. This issue may also lead to blood leakage during sampling of arterial blood or leakage during fluid delivery.
For certain customers, the Change Summary review option ceases to operate as expected for any migrated library after the migration has been completed. Users must use alternate methods to review changes. Failure to do so may lead in over delivery, under delivery, or delay in setup on the infusion pump.
Software issue only allows Concentration Limits to be defined to one digit of precision past the decimal point (0.1) instead of three digits (0.001). If the user is unable to use Concentration Limits as intended, they may need to change the limits to something other than what is recommended by the drug manufacturer, which may result in over- or under-delivery.

IV Gravity burette administration set burette component is missing an internal shutoff valve intended to stop fluid flow, which if used may result in delay in therapy during setup, over delivery/unrestricted flow, or air may be infused into the body.
Certain CADD 50 mL and 100 mL Medication Cassette Reservoirs may exhibit weakened medication bag welds along the bag perimeter inside the plastic housing. This could result in medication leakage along the bag perimeter.

ICU Medical identified two sequences of programming events and alarm interactions that may cause the user interface to become unresponsive.
Due to a manufacturing issue, disinfecting cap for needle-free connectors may have an incomplete seal between the foil lid and plastic container, which may result in isopropyl alcohol evaporation from the sponge, which may result in inadequate disinfection.
Internal testing found that Plum Duo pumps with software version 1.1.1 have a workflow that may result in bypassing the Maximum Dose Limit alert. The Maximum Dose Limit is set in the LifeShield Drug Library Manager (DLM) within the LifeShield Medication Management Safety Software and specifies the highest dose at which the pump can be programmed for weight or BSA (body surface area) based medication rulesets. The limit can be configured for Dose, Loading Dose, and Bolus Dose.

Firm has identified Drug Library Management defects in the software: 1) DLM software does not allow user to create percentage dose rate or rate change values with certain limits, potentially resulting in over-delivery to patient. 2) An unauthorized user may modify and approve a drug library, potentially leading to incorrect program parameters being used for therapy.
Labeling: Label Error on Declared Strength. Overwrap labeled as Potassium Chloride Inj 10 mEq may contain flexible containers of Potassium Chloride Inj 20 mEq
Labeling: Label Error on Declared Strength. Cases labeled POTASSIUM CHLORIDE 20 mEq, may contain flexible containers with overwrap mislabeled as 10 mEq. The correct dosage strength of 20 mEq is printed on the labeling affixed to the product flexible container.

ICU Medical has received reports of allegedly counterfeit CSB batteries being used with Plum Infusion Systems. While these non-OEM batteries are visually similar to the Plum batteries supplied by ICU Medical, they are in fact not the same batteries and have not been tested or validated for use with Plum Infusion Systems. Preliminary reports suggest that these non-OEM batteries fail to hold their charge and the pump may display messages to replace batteries earlier than expected. OSI Batteries and their customers are distributing these non-OEM CSB batteries without authorization from ICU Medical.

Ports have a potential for unintended disconnection, inability to connect to or fully engage with injectors, due to a variation in the spring inside the Port, which may cause delay of therapy and exposure to caustic substances. Ports available as standalone connectors, or utilized as access points on vial adaptors, bag spikes, and administration sets.
