B Braun Medical recalls specific IV administration sets used with gravity and pump systems due to potential backflow of medication and inability to prime. Affected units include those with catalog number 490:0062.
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 infections if not fixed.
The IV sets can allow medication from a secondary container to flow back into the primary container during use. This can cause incorrect dosing or contamination if the set cannot be properly primed to check for blockages.
Healthcare professionals using these IV sets with B Braun pumps like Infusomat Space, Outlook, or Vista Basic are most at risk. Patients receiving IV treatments with these sets may also be affected.
Check for the catalog number 490062 on the set. These sets were sold with B Braun pumps such as Infusomat Space, Outlook, and Vista Basic. The expiration date is the earliest expiration of components or 60 months from manufacture.
Look for the catalog number 490062 on the IV administration set.
