OptumHealth Care Solutions is recalling (Class 1) its Nimbus II Plus infusion pumps (also known as the Nimbus II Optum Homecare Infusion) in response to a 2/21 [InfuTronix recall](https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/medical-device-recalls/infutronix-llc-recalls-nimbus-and-nimbus-ii-infusion-pump-systems-multiple-device-failures-may-cause?ref=fdaweb.com) of these devices due to multiple potential failure modes that may include battery failure, upstream blockage, system errors, drug product leakage, high or low flow rate, or damaged housing. The devices will not be available or supported after 6/20, according to a [recall notice](https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/medical-device-recalls/optumhealth-care-solutions-recalls-nimbus-ii-infusion-pump-systems-under-recall-infutronix-llc?utm%5Fmedium=email&utm%5Fsource=govdelivery).

FDA says that using affected pumps could “cause infection from microbial contamination after loss of the sterile barrier (leakage), interruptions or delays in therapy from unnoticed occlusions or leaks may lead to underdosing of vital medications and fluids resulting in dangerous changes in blood pressure, dehydration (water loss), and electrolyte imbalance; seizures, shock and organ failure may occur.” Using the affected products may lead to serious injury or death.
