Reason for Recall

Variability in the performance of the tubing in the ARPS (Automatic Repositioning System) Pump Assembly which may lead to alarm situations during system self-test and therapy. This tubing is normally replaced during annual preventative maintenance. Alarm Situations: During System Self-Test: Alarm code B1215 (ARPS Self-Test failure); During Therapy: B1273 (ARPS Leak), B1215 (ARPS Pressure self-test), B1116 (Return Pressure self-test Failure), B1539 (Access Pod Reposition Failure), B1541 (Effluent Pod Reposition Failure), B1540 (Effluent Filter Pod Reposition Failure). If an alarm occurs, it may lead to delay or interruption of therapy. In the event that therapy is terminated without returning blood to the patient, blood loss may occur.

Firm Action

Baxter sent An Urgent Medical Device Correction letter dated January 7, 2021. To prevent potential alarm situations, the affected tubing in the ARPS Pump Assembly for the PrisMax devices will be replaced with improved tubing. Operators may continue to safely use the PrisMax System until the tubing is replaced within the ARPS Pump Assembly. If an alarm occurs, the PrisMax System will default to a safe state and the user should follow the on-screen instructions to end treatment and to contact service. A local Baxter service representative will contact each facility to determine the correction plan and schedule the replacement for the impacted devices only. Facilities involved will be receiving this replacement from Baxter at no charge.
