B Braun recalls specific IV administration sets used with gravity and pump systems due to potential medication backflow and inability to prime. Affected units have catalog numbers 490088 and 490107.
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 that can cause medication to flow backward into the main IV line or become blocked. This could lead to incorrect dosing or infections if the sets are used without proper checks.
The sets may allow medication from a secondary IV container to flow back into the primary container. This can cause blockages (occlusion) that prevent proper medication delivery and increase infection risks.
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.
Check for catalog numbers 490088 or 490107 on the IV sets. These sets were sold with B Braun's Infusomat Space, Outlook, or Vista Basic pumps.
Look for catalog numbers 490088 or 490107 on the IV administration sets used with B Braun pumps.
