ICU Medical, Inc. acquired from Pfizer in early 2017, Hospira Infusion Systems, the portion of Hospira dedicated to develop infusion pumps.
A lithium battery, that is not user accessible, is used to power the memory that stores the current infusion settings and the event history logs when the pump is turned off. if the battery's voltage level drops below 2.4 volts, an 11/004 error will be displayed and the device will not be able to be used, resulting in a possible delay/interruption in therapy. additionally, the infusion settings and event history logs will be erased.
