Access Scientific recalls BD PosiFlush SF Saline Flush Syringe 10mL used in POWERWAND XL kits due to packaging holes risking contamination. Affected units have specific lot numbers and were sold with certain reference codes.
Saline Flush Syringe compromised sterility due to holes in the packaging.
Access Scientific is recalling BD PosiFlush SF Saline Flush Syringes that came with POWERWAND XL kits because holes in the packaging could compromise sterility. This means the syringes might not be clean enough for medical use, which could lead to infections.
The syringes were shipped in packaging with holes that could allow contaminants to enter. This compromises sterility, meaning the syringes might not be clean enough for medical procedures like blood sampling or IV fluid administration.
Healthcare professionals using these syringes for blood draws or IV fluid administration are most at risk. Patients receiving treatments with these syringes could face infection if the packaging was compromised.
Check for lot numbers: 259532, 259909, 260326, 269087, 267012, 269119, 269341. The product was sold with reference codes 94107/10859821006206 and used in POWERWAND XL 4Fr 10cm Max Barrier Kits.
Look for lot numbers 259532, 259909, 260326, 269087, 267012, 269119, or 269341 on the syringe packaging.
The packaging had holes that could compromise sterility, meaning the syringes might not be clean enough for medical use.
The recall record does not specify a remedy, so you should check the lot numbers and contact Access Scientific if you have the affected product.
The recall states the risk is contamination, not injury. The danger level is low_risk as the hazard is about sterility, not physical harm.
