The Metrix Company is recalling 20,364 empty IV bags sold under the VYGON, CORMIX, SECURE, and Imed Products brands. These single-use plastic pouches, designed to contain intravenous fluids, were found to leak during the filling process. No injuries or incidents have been reported to date, but the company initiated the recall after discovering the defect.
Leaking IV bags can lead to the loss of critical medication or fluids and may allow contaminants into the sterile container. This poses a risk of infection or inadequate dosing for patients receiving intravenous therapy.
