Fresenius Medical Care is recalling four US AquaA 900H-Typ USA-3 x 208v water purification systems intended for hemodialysis treatment. The systems can experience concentrate flow that exceeds safe pressure limits, triggering an error message (F 02 01 04) that automatically shuts down the water supply. This defect stops the essential flow of purified water required to perform dialysis, potentially interrupting patient care. The recall affects four specific units distributed in Alabama, Indiana, Alaska, and Wisconsin, and owners should contact the manufacturer or their healthcare provider for next steps.
High concentrate pressure levels trigger a system-wide safety shutdown that stops the dialysis water supply. This sudden interruption can prevent the start of treatment or disrupt an ongoing dialysis session, which is critical for patients with kidney failure.
