Plain-English summary

ICU Medical, Inc. is recalling 19,250 units of 30-inch I.V. infusion administration sets with an integrated ChemoLock drip chamber. The affected devices are intended for the infusion and withdrawal of fluids.

The recall was initiated because an issue was identified with a connection in an isolated number of these sets. Specifically, the connection between the Drip Chamber or Bag Spike and the ChemoLock port has the potential for developing a leak.

The affected units were distributed in the United States (NV, OH, MO, CA, FL, VA, TX, NJ, CT, MI, AZ, MA, CO) and in several non-US countries including DE, AE, AT, PL, HU, SE, IL, JP, JO, and SA.
