SODIUM CHLORIDE

• 125 mL Syringe:  Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% is indicated for use in flushing compatible contrast agents through Liebel-Flarsheim intravenous administration sets into indwelling intravascular access devices only when delivered by the following Liebel-Flarsheim power injectors: Angiomat^®, Illumena^®, Illumena^® Néo, CT9000^®, CT9000^® ADV, Optistat^®, Optivantage^® and Optistar Elite.

• The 125 mL syringe are for single patient use only.
• Determine the volume of the saline flush for each patient individually based, in part, on the imaging procedure, the location of the vascular access device, the length of tubing between the Liebel-Flarsheim contrast agent power injector and the vascular access device and the recommendations made on the package insert for the contrast agent. Typical Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% flush volumes following contrast agent administration in adults are 10 to 25 mL per injection at rates not to exceed 10 mL/sec.
• Use of some Liebel-Flarsheim contrast agent power injectors allows for additional infusion of Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% to maintain the patency of vascular access. Typical infusion rates used for this purpose are in the range of 0.5 to 1 mL per minute.
• Individualize infusion rates and flush volumes for each patient based on their body weight, fluid status and concomitant medical conditions.
• Consult the Liebel-Flarsheim contrast agent power injector manual for proper use.

Use of Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% may pose a threat of overdose marked by electrolyte disturbance and/or fluid overload, particularly in pediatric patients and patients with compromised renal or cardiac function. In the event of overdosage, discontinue the infusion, reevaluate the patient and institute appropriate corrective action.

Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% is a formulation of sodium chloride in Water for Intravascular Injection. No preservative, antimicrobial agent or buffer is added. Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% is provided as a sterile, nonpyrogenic, clear, colorless, odorless solution.

    Molecular formula = NaCl                   MW = 58.44

Each mL of Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% contains 9 mg of sodium chloride. The pH is 4.5 to 7.0. The osmolarity is 308 mOsm/L (calc.).  

Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% is provided in a 125 mL syringe with a 125 mL fill.  The syringes are for single patient use and are disposable and not meant for reuse.

Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% has an osmotic pressure similar to plasma.

Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% is a clear, colorless, odorless solution containing 9 mg/mL of sodium chloride. Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% is supplied in 125 mL prefilled syringes containing 125 mL of solution. Each syringe is sealed with rubber closures and the contents are sterile. The 125 mL syringe is supplied with a luer locknut adapter which is cleared for manufacture and distribution as a device under 510(K) number 862653. The syringes are contained in shipping cartons with the following configurations:

RFID-Tagged Syringe Description

This information is for Ultraject^® syringes containing Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% that has been labeled with a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag.  When used with an RFID-enabled Optivantage Injector, this tag allows for the exchange of product information such as lot number, expiration, concentration, and identification of the syringe as being unused prior to use and used after product administration.  Patient information is not utilized in any form with this RFID technology. Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% product quality is not impacted with the use of this RFID tag. Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% RFID syringes require no special handling and should be stored at the conditions listed for the drug product.

RFID-Tagged Syringe Directions for Use

For the RFID technology to function, the syringe must be used with an Optivantage Injector with RFID technology. Function of the RFID technology is not dependent on syringe orientation as it is placed in the injector. Instructions for use of the injector are provided on the injector interface screens and operator’s manual.

If the RFID tag is damaged or otherwise non-functional, the injector will notify the user.  Should this occur, the Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% syringe with the non-functional RFID tag may still be used but no data will be transferred to the injector.

Regarding interference with medical devices, the RFID tag and injector system meet the IEC 60601-1-2 requirements for emission and immunity standards for medical devices.  Follow all manufacturers’ guidelines and do not operate any part of the Optivantage Injector System and RFID-tagged syringes within 6 inches (15 cm) of a pacemaker and/or defibrillator.

Storage

Store Sodium Chloride Injection USP 0.9% syringes and RFID-tagged syringes at 25°C (77°F); excursions permitted to 15° to 30°C (59° to 86°F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature].
