New devices address infusion delivery variability and expand ICU Medical IV Performance Platform in Canada

Richmond Hill, Ontario,14 January 2026 – ICU Medical Inc. (NASDAQ:ICUI), a global leader in the development, manufacture, and sale of innovative medical technology, today announced the regulatory clearance from Health Canada of its Plum Solo and Plum Duo precision IV pumps with LifeShield infusion safety software in Canada. This marks the first time Canadian healthcare organizations will have access to the new category of precision infusion technology, expanding ICU Medical’s IV Performance Platform into a new market.

Precision infusion pumps represent a significant advancement for Canadian healthcare by addressing the infusion delivery variability often experienced with traditional devices while supporting the increasing need for accurate data in modern patient care. Built on the unique cassette technology in the Best in KLAS award-winning Plum 360, both the single-channel Plum Solo and dual-channel Plum Duo deliver ±3% accuracy and provide reliable infusion documentation to support clinical decision-making.

“Making precision IV pumps available in Canada is an important milestone,” said Mat Dinneen, country manager of ICU Medical Canada. “Canadian healthcare providers can now access technology designed not only to deliver medications with a high degree of accuracy, but also to ensure that infusion data truly reflects what patients receive. That combination empowers clinicians to make more informed decisions and deliver safer, more consistent care.”

With their complementary designs, the Plum Solo and Plum Duo precision IV pumps give Canadian hospitals and health systems the flexibility to select the right configuration for their infusion needs while optimizing space, performance, and safety. Both devices maintain accuracy regardless of setup, temperature, or elevation—offering a consistent experience across care environments.

Key benefits of the IV Performance Platform include:
  • Precise Delivery: Unique pumping mechanism allowing for accurate and precise medication delivery with both Plum Solo and Plum Duo pumps, no matter where the pump or the infusion bag is placed.
  • Simplified User Experience: Full-colour touchscreens (7-inch [17.8 cm] on Plum Solo, 10-inch [25.4 cm] on Plum Duo) deliver intuitive programming with near real-time safety feedback for faster workflows and reduced cognitive load.
  • Streamlined Medication Management: Simplified drug library and firmware deployment, managed from a central location anytime, anywhere, to help ensure devices are consistently updated and pumps are on the most current software version.
  • Full IV-EHR Interoperability: Built on ICU Medical’s 17 years of industry-leading experience, LifeShield software connectivity and integration can support better decision-making and more coordinated care across healthcare systems.
  • Future Ready: The LifeShield enterprise ecosystem will provide a single, harmonized IT platform for ICU Medical's road map of delivering best-of-breed devices for every infusion modality.

“This launch is part of our commitment to providing caregivers the most comprehensive, precise, and advanced infusion technology,” Dinneen added. “We are proud to bring this standard of infusion performance to Canada as part of our ongoing mission to improve the safety and efficiency of IV therapy everywhere.”
