A recall has been issued for Hospira Plum A+ and Plum A+3 Infusion Systems due to alarm volume failure. The Plum A+ and A+3 infusion pumps have an alarm that should sound when a therapy is interrupted. Some of the alarms may fail to sound in situations that should trigger it. It is possible for a long delay before a health care professional becomes aware of the need to restore therapy. No injuries, illnesses, or deaths associated with this defect have been reported. However, for patients receiving critical intravenous medication, there is a risk of injury resulting from this prolonged interruption in therapy. There is the possibility of serious patient injury or death. For more information, please see: http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ListofRecalls/ucm436770.htm
