B Braun Medical recalls specific IV administration sets used with gravity and pump systems due to potential medication backflow and inability to prime. Affected units include PB1500 sets with catalog number 490:0025.
Potential for backflow of medication from secondary (piggyback) IV containers into primary IV containers and the inability to prime (occlusion).
B Braun Medical is recalling certain IV administration sets used in gravity and pump IV systems because they can cause medication to flow backward into the main container and fail to prime properly. This could lead to incorrect dosing or infection risks if the sets are used without proper checks.
The IV sets can allow medication from secondary containers to flow back into the primary container during use. This may cause incorrect dosing or contamination if the sets cannot be properly primed to check for blockages.
Healthcare professionals using these IV sets with gravity or pump systems are most at risk. Patients receiving IV treatments with the recalled sets could face medication errors or infections.
Check for the PB1500 15 DROP IV SET with 2 stopcocks labeled as catalog number 490025. These sets were sold with B Braun's Infusomat Space, Outlook, and Vista Basic pumps.
Look for the catalog number 490025 on the IV set label to confirm if it is affected.
