On August 19, 2021, Aligned Medical Solutions initiated a nationwide recall of Cardinal Health’s Monoject™ Flush Prefilled Saline Syringes placed into 9,378 kits. Including;

  • 1 lot of AMS-9041CP Leaderflex Insertion Kit with Ultrasound
  • 1 lot of AMS-9046CP-1 Insertion Tray-RX
  • 45 lots of AMS8939A Universal Procedure Pack w/Split Drape
  • 1 lot of AMS9957A Port Insertion Pack
  • 3 lots of AMS12149 Procedure Pack

These convenience kits have been found to contain the Cardinal Health’s Monoject™ Flush Prefilled Saline Syringe part # 8881570121, which has been recalled for the potential for the plunger to draw back after the air has been expelled and reintroduced air back into the syringe. If a clinician is not aware of air being introduced into the syringe, the clinician could inadvertently push air into the vascular system creating the potential for an air embolism. Injection of air into the vascular system can cause air embolism which can result in serious adverse health consequences or death.
