Cardinal Health 200, LLC is recalling approximately 16.6 million Monoject syringes because they may not be recognized by or compatible with syringe infusion pumps. This defect occurs because the syringes have different dimensions than those previously validated for use with these pumps, which can lead to pump errors, failure to recognize the syringe, or incorrect medication delivery. These luer-lock tip syringes were distributed nationwide across the United States in various sizes ranging from 1 mL to 60 mL.
If an infusion pump does not recognize the syringe or is incompatible with its dimensions, it may result in an interruption of therapy, under-dosing, or over-dosing of critical medications. This poses a significant risk to patients who rely on precise delivery of life-sustaining fluids and drugs.
