Reason

Cardinal Health is initiating an urgent product correction on specific lots of Presource® Packs produced containing the affected Cardinal Health Monoject™ Flush Prefilled Syringes (0.9% Sodium Chloride) component due to the potential for the plunger to draw back after the air has been expelled and reintroduce air back into the syringe.
