Reason/Issue There has been a previous notification (TGA Ref.: RC-2015-RN-00767-1) for devices manufactured during a specific time period, however further root cause analysis has shown all manufactured syringe drivers/modules prior to July 2015 are affected.

CareFusion has received service reports of a channel error on the Alaris System Syringe module model 8110.

A channel error is displayed on the syringe module in association with an audible and visual alarm on the attached PC Unit (error code 351.6740); once cleared on the PCU the Syringe module remains unresponsive to key presses until the next power cycle, or the module is detached and re-attached. This error could occur during an infusion causing an interruption of infusion.
