Reason for Recall
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.
