MRP, LLC dba Aquabiliti has recalled approximately 3,080,000 AQUASTAT 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection syringes because the saline solution may not maintain the correct salt concentration after 12 months. This recall affects various lots of the 5mL and 3mL syringes used to flush medical lines. Consumers and healthcare providers should check their inventory for the specific lot numbers and expiration dates ranging from early 2024 to late 2025. Because this is a medical device issue, you should contact your healthcare provider or the manufacturer for instructions on returning the product.
The syringes may fail to meet the required USP standards for sodium chloride content after being stored for a year, which could result in patients receiving a solution with incorrect saline levels. While no injuries have been reported, using sub-potent saline flushes in a clinical setting could impact the effectiveness of medical treatments or line maintenance.
