Lack of assurance of sterility. Validation data for decontamination cycles is lacking.
Central Admixture Pharmacy Services is recalling neonatal TPN starter bags that contain low calcium and heparin. The bags lack proper sterility validation, which could lead to contamination risks for newborns receiving IV treatments.
The bags have insufficient validation for decontamination cycles, meaning they may not be sterile. This lack of sterility could introduce harmful bacteria into the baby's bloodstream during IV treatment, potentially causing serious infections.
Newborns receiving intravenous treatments through these specific neonatal TPN starter bags are at risk. Healthcare providers using the recalled bags for neonatal care are most affected.
Check for the NDC number 72196-0427-1 and lot numbers 36-252082 (expiring 7/16/2023) or 36-254925 (expiring 7/22/2023). These bags are only available for prescription use in neonatal care.
Verify the NDC number and lot numbers listed in the recall notice to confirm if your bag is affected.
The recall is due to lack of assurance of sterility in the bags, as validation data for decontamination cycles is missing.
