Reason/Issue A software configuration defect has been identified that impacts one Standard Content (configuration that is shipped with the product) unit of measure (gm/m2) for the Body Surface Area (BSA). The defect involves an incorrect multiplier in the configuration that causes an incorrect calculation of medication dosage. If the user does not identify that an incorrect multiplier exists in the Standard Content, a patient may receive a dose of medication that is incorrect (10 times the intended dosage).
