Saline Flush Syringe compromised sterility due to holes in the packaging.
Access Scientific is recalling BD PosiFlush SF Saline Flush Syringes used with POWERWAND XL kits because the packaging has holes that could compromise sterility. This means the syringes might not be sterile, increasing infection risk during medical procedures.
The syringes' packaging has holes that can let contaminants enter the sterile product. This compromises sterility, meaning the syringes might not be safe for medical use, potentially causing infections during procedures.
Healthcare professionals using the syringes for blood draws or IV fluids are most at risk. Patients receiving treatments with these syringes could face infections if the packaging holes allow contamination.
