Reported risk: Baxter Corporation has been made aware that users may not be following the instructions in the operator's manual and incorrectly opening disposable set packaging while setting up their peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy, damaging the cassettes for the Homechoice or Homechoice Pro System. If damaged cassettes are used, the cyclers may not consistently detect very small holes/cuts in the sheeting of the cassette in the patient valve region, and the cycler may deliver air into the patient.
