Medline Primary Warmer Pack Recalled for Unsafe Aluminum Levels

Medline Industries is recalling 4,680 Primary Warmer Packs because the included Vyaire enFlow cartridge may release unsafe aluminum levels into the infusate.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states that the use of the BD Alaris Pump Infusion Set may lead to serious adverse events for patients, which aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or risk of serious harm.

Plain-English summary

Medline Industries Inc is recalling 4,680 kits of the Medline Primary Warmer Pack, Product No. DYNJ52510A. The recall is driven by the inclusion of the Vyaire enFlow Disposable Cartridge, which was previously recalled due to the potential for unsafe aluminum levels to elute into the infusate. The Vyaire enFlow Disposable Cartridges contain a heating element used to help raise or maintain a patient's body temperature.

The Medline Primary Warmer Pack also contains the recalled BD Alaris Pump Infusion Set (RES#82951). The use of this infusion set may lead to serious adverse events for patients due to incomplete occlusion caused by variation in tubing wall thickness.

The affected lots are 2018090690, 2018101190, 2018101590, 2018121190, 2019013190, 2019030490, and 2019040190. The products were distributed to one distributor located in Illinois. Consumers and healthcare facilities should stop using the affected products and contact Medline Industries Inc for further instructions.
