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 number 490:612.
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 container and fail to prime properly. This could lead to incorrect dosing or contamination of the medication.
The IV sets can allow medication from a secondary container to flow back into the primary container, potentially causing incorrect dosing or contamination. They may also fail to prime properly, leading to blockages or incomplete medication delivery.
