Any physics savvy reefers? IV Bags at Altitude?

First "Lounge" post, but the nature of the hobby attracts individuals much smarter than myself, especially in the field of physics. Going on a trip in few weeks and wanna bring some IV Saline/LR bags and catheters( rehydration purposes in the potential event of getting sick) but was wondering if there are pressure differentials from the main cabin of an airplane and the cargo area in which my carry on bags( and the IV Bags) would be stored for a 15 hour flight.
If say, a 1L Saline bag is in the cargo area, would it explode?

Thanks, and No I haven't experienced that since I dont ever travel with shampoo. Pretty sure TSA won't allow anything over (what is it like 3 oz?) in your carry on these days otherwise that would be the call.

3-1-1 Liquids Rule Exemption

You may bring medically necessary liquids, medications and creams in excess of 3.4 ounces or 100 milliliters in your carry-on bag. Remove them from your carry-on bag to be screened separately from the rest of your belongings. You are not required to place your liquid medication in a plastic zip-top bag. If a liquid, gel, or aerosol declared as medically-necessary alarms, then it may require additional screening and may not be allowed

Accessories

Ice packs, freezer packs, gel packs, and other accessories may be presented at the screening checkpoint in a frozen or partially-frozen state to keep medically necessary items cool. All items, including supplies associated with medically necessary liquids such as IV bags, pumps, and syringes must be screened before they will be permitted into the secure area of the airport.

Thanks for that. Seems to be a bit of a grey area since I don't have prescriptions or a medical condition. I'm just taking them in case we come across standard travelers ailments secondary to food/water etc. But thanks for the link, I guess ill follow up with TSA.

Well, pressure and temperature changes will have a notable impact on the volume of a gas, but water doesn't do much except at the freezing and boiling point.
