B. Braun Medical, Inc. has recalled 756 bags of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP 1000 mL (saline solution) because the bags may leak. These single-dose containers lack sterility assurance if they are leaking, which means the product could become contaminated. The saline solution was distributed to hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies in Florida, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. No injuries or incidents have been reported to date.
Leaking bags pose a risk of contamination, which can lead to serious infections if a non-sterile solution is administered to a patient. Because this product is an injection, any loss of sterility presents a high risk to patient health.
Recall #: D-0076-2023. Manufactured by B. Braun Medical Inc. Bethlehem, PA 18018-3524 USA.
