Medline Industries, LP has recalled 17,530 Fluid Delivery Sets because they were incorrectly assembled with a white macro drip chamber instead of the required grey micro drip chamber. The macro drip chamber delivers three times more fluid per drop than the micro drip chamber, which can lead to over-dosing or fluid overload. The recalled products include various neuro, radiology, and angiography kits distributed nationwide in the United States.
The use of these incorrectly assembled sets may result in patients receiving three times the intended amount of fluid or medication. This poses a critical risk of fluid overload or dangerous medication errors that could lead to serious injury or death, though no injuries have been reported to date.
