Cardinal Health is recalling 701,678 Monoject enteral and Luer-Lock syringes because certain enteral models are not compatible with feeding pumps, while others are being removed from the market due to manufacturing changes. Using the incompatible enteral syringes with feeding pumps can lead to incorrect dosing or pump errors. Affected products include various sizes of sterile Luer-Lock syringes (1 mL to 60 mL) and purple ENFit enteral syringes (1 mL to 60 mL). Consumers should immediately identify if they have any of the affected lot numbers and contact the manufacturer or their healthcare provider for guidance on next steps.
The enteral syringes may not be recognized by certain feeding pumps, which can lead to pump failure, delayed feeding, or inaccurate delivery of nutrition. Additionally, manufacturing changes for the Luer-Lock models have prompted a full product removal to ensure patient safety and brand consistency.
