Product Elements:

Sodium chloride sodium chloride sodium chloride sodium cation chloride ion water

Indications and Usage:

Indications and usage 0.9% sodium chloride irrigation, usp is indicated for use as an arthroscopic irrigating fluid with endoscopic instruments during arthroscopic procedures requiring distension and irrigation of the knee, shoulder, elbow, or other bone joints.

Warnings:

Warnings not for injection. because fluids used to irrigate joints may be absorbed into the general circulation, solutions containing sodium ion should be used with great care in patients with congestive heart failure, severe renal insufficiency, and in clinical states in which there exists edema with sodium retention. the contents of an opened container should be used promptly to minimize the possibility of bacterial growth or pyrogen formation. discard the unused portion of irrigating solution since no antimicrobial agent has been added.

Dosage and Administration:

Dosage and administration the volume of solution needed will vary with the nature and duration of the arthroscopic procedure. if desired, warm in overpouch to near body temperature in a water bath or oven heated to not more than 45º c. parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration whenever solution and container permit.

Contraindications:

Contraindications none known.

Adverse Reactions:

Adverse reactions none known.

Pediatric Use:

Pediatric use safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. do not administer unless the solution is clear and the seal is intact.

Description:

Description 0.9% sodium chloride irrigation, usp is a sterile nonpyrogenic, isotonic solution in a single dose arthromatic plastic container for use as an arthroscopic irrigating solution. each liter contains 9 g sodium chloride, usp (nacl) in water for injection. ph 5.5 (4.5 to 7.0). milliequivalents per liter: sodium - 154, chloride - 154. osmolarity 308 mosmol/l (calc.). no antimicrobial agent has been added. the arthromatic plastic container is fabricated from a specially formulated polyvinyl chloride (pl 146 plastic). the amount of water that can permeate from inside the container into the overwrap is insufficient to affect the solution significantly. solutions in contact with the plastic container can leach out certain of its chemical components in very small amounts within the expiration period, e.g., di-2-ethylhexylphthalate (dehp), up to 5 parts per million. however, the safety of the plastic has been confirmed in tests in animals according to usp biological tests for plastic containers as well as by tissue culture toxicity studies.

Clinical Pharmacology:

Clinical pharmacology 0.9% sodium chloride irrigation, usp is useful as an irrigating fluid for body joints because the solution is isotonic, and provides a transparent fluid medium with optical properties suitable for good visualization of the interior joint surface during endoscopic examination. during arthroscopic surgical procedures, the solution acts as a lavage for removing blood, tissue fragments, and bone fragments.
