Omnicell IVX Station Reconstitution Transfer Sets recalled for sterility concerns

Omnicell has recalled 3 IVX Station Reconstitution Transfer Sets (Model 298921215) distributed in Alabama due to improper packing that prevents sterility assurance. The engineering devices were shipped for system setup, not clinical use.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. The devices are engineering equipment shipped for system setup, not intended for clinical use, which reduces the actual hazard risk. The inability to ensure sterility represents a theoretical concern without documented adverse events.

Plain-English summary

The IVX Station Reconstitution Transfer Set, Model Number 298921215, is a component used in hospital pharmacies to reconstitute drug vials with the IVX Station Pharmacy Compounding System. Omnicell, Inc. has recalled 3 units that were distributed in Alabama.

The recalled units were shipped in advance of an IVX Station system upgrade as engineering devices intended for setup and system calibration, not for clinical use. These units were not shipped in a validated packing configuration, and sterility cannot be ensured.
