Hello,
I received an email from an educator in my facility stating that Air Life has officially recalled the tape. Has anyone else gotten any correspondence regarding this?

Lisa,
As of my last check, the manufacturer of the Broselow tape has issued a notice of the error, but does not plan on a second recall. Upon examining our tapes, we found that the weight-based dosing for flumazenil was correct, despite the incorrect formula. In an effort not lose the other updates, my hospital chose to alter (damage) the tape where it shows the formula to prevent miscalculations. This is not likely the best solution, but until a corrected version is available to purchase, it is the route my CAH chose to take.

How off would be using the 2019 Broselow tape until the new updated one is available?
