B. Braun Medical Inc. is recalling 97,188 containers of Lactated Ringer's Injection USP and 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP in 1000mL Excel containers. The recall was issued because the sterile integrity of the bags cannot be guaranteed due to a potential fluid leak at one of the weld sites. These injectable medications are used to provide fluid and electrolyte replenishment and are typically administered in clinical or hospital settings.
The potential for fluid leakage at a weld site means the product may not be sterile. Administering a contaminated injection can lead to serious systemic infections or other life-threatening complications for patients.
