Baxter TruSystem 7500 Software Issue Impairs Upper Back Adjustment in Emergency Mode

Baxter Healthcare is recalling 93 TruSystem 7500 Hybrid Plus units for a software issue that renders the upper back section inoperable when emergency mode is enabled.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Devices): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is a Class II medical device recall affecting emergency mode functionality. Although no illnesses or injuries are reported, the software defect creates a risk of harm by preventing adjustment of the upper back section during emergency situations, satisfying the rubric criterion for 'risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.'
