Management of Sterile Water for the Renal Denervation (RDN) System

Hi all,

We have been navigating sterile water in patient care areas for the Paradise Ultrasound Renal Denervation (RDN) system, which was just featured in the ISMP Newsletter on August 22, 2024. This system includes tubing and an integrated spike that connects to a required sterile water supply (250mL, 500mL and 1000mL are FDA approved), which serves as a coolant. With the concern around sterile water in patient care areas, has anyone developed safe protocols for the stocking, storage, and monitoring of sterile water for injection for the RDN System?

Your insights and experiences would be extremely helpful in addressing this critical issue. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
