Description

Baxter Healthcare Corporation, Renal Software Suite v.3.1 - HD Module; clinical data management software; Baxter Healthcare Corporation, McGaw Park, Illinois 60085

Reason

Software Error: There are software discrepancies that may increase the possibility of a medication error if the dialysis clinic software is used to track, record, or coordinate the administration of medications.

Action

Baxter sent Urgent Device Correction letters dated 3/29/06 to those customers who had their RenalSoft and Renal Software Suite software configured with the affected modules. The letters indicated in a table which software anomalies were associated with the affected software modules in each software version. A description of each anomaly was provided, along with interim actions to take to mitigate the anomaly until the new software version RenalSoft V.2.0.x can be issued. Individual customer training will be performed at each facility for those issues identified in the letter specific to their software version. At that time the mitigation provided in the letter will be reviewed with the customer.
