The AquaFlexFlow UF 500 Plus extracorporeal blood circuit used with the Aquadex SmartFlow and FlexFlow Systems may indicate "Ultrafiltrate Weight Mismatch" or Excessive Weight Mismatch Alarms while in use. If not addressed, this failure could result in excess fluid removal from a patient leading to Acute Volume Depletion. This failure is especially serious when the Aquadex System is being used on pediatric patients.

Prior to current established manufacturing practices, higher levels of airborne formaldehyde exposure from newly manufactured incubators could be seen during clinical use that would rapidly decrease over a week. Affected customers were notified in June 2023 to run incubators for a week to potentially off gas any residual airborne formaldehyde. The general scientific consensus is that sensory irritation of the eyes is the most sensitive endpoint with respect to exposure to airborne formaldehyde and is the adverse effect clinically experienced at the lowest concentration.
