Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc. is recalling 183 cases of DELFLEX Peritoneal Dialysis Solution with Low Magnesium / Low Calcium 4.25% Dextrose. The product is packaged in a 2500mL single-dose container and includes an attached stay "safe Exchange Set. This recall was initiated because of a tube weld failure that can cause a slow leak that is difficult to detect. Consumers and healthcare providers should check their supply for the affected lot and stop using it immediately.
A failure in the tube weld can cause the solution to leak slowly, potentially compromising the sterility of the dialysis fluid. This defect could lead to serious infections, such as peritonitis, for patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis.
