B Braun recalls IV administration sets used with gravity and pump systems due to potential medication backflow and inability to prime. Affected units have specific catalog numbers and expiration dates.
Potential for backflow of medication from secondary (piggyback) IV containers into primary IV containers and the inability to prime (occlusion).
B Braun is recalling certain IV administration sets used with gravity and pump systems because they can cause medication to flow backward into the main IV line and fail to prime properly. This could lead to incorrect dosing or infections if medication leaks back into the patient's bloodstream.
These IV sets can allow medication from a secondary container to flow back into the primary IV line, potentially causing incorrect dosing. They may also not prime correctly, leading to blockages that could cause medication to leak into the patient's bloodstream.
Healthcare professionals using IV sets with B Braun's Infusomat, Outlook, or Vista pumps are most at risk. Patients receiving IV treatments with these sets may also be affected.
Check for catalog numbers 490549 or 490565 on the IV set. These sets were sold with B Braun's Infusomat, Outlook, or Vista pumps and have expiration dates of up to 36 months from manufacturing.
Look for catalog numbers 490549 or 490565 on the IV set to confirm if it is affected.
