A warning has been issued amid concerns that a range of infusion pumps commonly used in hospitals across the UK could fail.
The Plum A+ devices, manufactured by Hospira, carry the list numbers 12391 and 20792 and are now the subject of a Medical Device Alert issued by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) following an earlier field safety notice from the manufacturer.
