    Baxter sent an Important Product Information communication to affected customers (patients and clinicians) via U.S.P.S., first-class mail on June 29, 2015. The letter states that Baxter Healthcare Corporation is updating the HomeChoice Patient At-Home Guide to include a discussion of the expected operating sounds associated with the HomeChoice and HomeChoice PRO devices. The new labeling will address the following: The HomeChoice cycler utilizes an air (pneumatic) pump; some sounds related to the operation of this pump are expected as part of normal operation of the HomeChoice cycler. There will be sounds like humming, swishing, clicking, and venting (air being released) that are normal for the operation of the cycler. In certain portions of the therapy, the sound level is expected to increase which is also part of normal operation. If there is a significant change in the sound level or a new, previously unheard sound when using the HomeChoice cycler, please contact your doctor and/or nurse or Baxter Technical Services. The firm advises customers to keep the letter with the Patient At-Home Guide. The firm also requests that customers complete the enclosed home patient reply form (enclosure) and return it to Baxter by faxing the reply form to 224-270-5457, scanning and e-mailing it to fca@baxter.com or by mail in the enclosed, preaddressed, stamped envelope. Returning the home patient reply form promptly will prevent you from receiving repeat notices.
