Why it was recalled

Plum A+ infusion system pole clamp assemblies were discovered to be cracked. If the knob on the pole clamp assembly is cracked, the infuser cannot be attached to the IV pole since the knob is used to tighten and loosen the grip of the pole clamp to the pole.

Class II means using this product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems; the chance of serious harm is remote.
