BD Alaris Systems Lawsuits
The BD Alaris System is used to observe a patient’s vital signs and deliver medications or fluids. BD Alaris pumps, manufactured by Becton, Dickinson and Company (BD), have been recalled four times alone this year due to defects that may pose the risks of death or serious injury. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has designated some of these recalls as Class I recalls- the most serious action taken by the Administration.

What are BD Alaris Systems?
BD Alaris is a series of infusion and IV systems that administer medications and fluids to patients in controlled doses. The BD Alaris system contains a PCU (point of care unit) with four potential modules to program the device to deliver a specified amount of medication. The modules include the Alaris Syringe Module, BD Pump Module, Alaris EtCO2 Module, and Alaris Auto-ID Module. These infusion systems can be used for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients. BD Alaris products were initially approved by the FDA in 1995.
What is Happening with BD Alaris Systems?
The BD Alaris system has been recalled several times in the last few years. In 2020 alone, the company issued four separate recalls of more than one million devices. The following systems and model numbers were subject to the latest recalls: the Alaris System Infusion Pumps, the Alaris PC Unit Model 8015, BD Alaris Syringe Module, and the BD Alaris PCA Module.
The FDA’s recall of BD Alaris system models were mostly classified as Class I recalls, thereby warning the public that BD Alaris products could lead to severe injury or death. The agency determined that the defective devices include damaged interfaces, broken elements on the pump mechanism, improper attachment of the battery, faulty module display, software errors, low battery alarm failures, options programming irregularities and other use errors. The device’s failure to function properly may lead to delayed, interrupted or improper infusion of medications and fluids.
BD Alaris System Side Effects and Complications
Complications of BD Alaris Systems that may lead to serious injury or death include:
- Delayed infusion;
- Interruption of infusion;
- Slower delivery; and
- Faster delivery.
