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.

What this means for you

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.'
