B Braun Medical recalls extension sets for IV pumps that may cause medication backflow into primary IV containers. Affected units have specific catalog numbers and are used with Infusomat pumps. Stop using immediately to prevent potential medication contamination.
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 extension sets used with IV pumps because they can cause medication to flow backward into the main IV container and fail to prime properly. This could lead to medication contamination or incorrect dosing if the set is not used correctly.
The extension sets can allow medication from secondary IV containers to flow back into the primary container. They may also become blocked (occluded), preventing the proper priming of the IV system and causing medication delivery issues.
Healthcare professionals using IV pumps with B Braun extension sets are most at risk. Patients receiving IV treatments with these specific sets may also be affected.
Check for the catalog number 490202 on the extension set. These sets are used with B Braun Infusomat pumps including Space, Outlook, and Vista Basic models. They were sold with specific UDI-DI numbers.
