SUMMARY: One month after Hurricane Helen devastated parts of the Southeast, IV bag shortages persist, particularly affecting a major Baxter facility in North Carolina that produces 60% of the company’s bags. Steven Love, president of the DFW Hospital Council, reports that while North Texas hospitals are managing and conserving resources, elective surgeries have not been postponed. However, some areas in Texas face significant challenges, highlighting the vital role IV fluids play in healthcare. To address the shortage, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is facilitating imports, with Baxter’s operations expected to resume fully by December.

The DFW Hospital Council admits local hospitals have been impacted, but they are not in panic mode yet. However, that’s not the case in other parts of Texas.
