B Braun recalls specific IV administration sets used with pumps due to potential medication backflow and inability to prime, which could cause errors in treatment.
Potential for backflow of medication from secondary (piggyback) IV containers into primary IV containers and the inability to prime (occlusion).
B Braun is recalling three specific IV administration sets used with their pumps because they might cause medication to flow backward into the main IV line or not prime properly. This could lead to incorrect dosing or treatment errors.
These IV sets might allow medication from a secondary container to flow back into the primary container during use. This could cause medication errors or the set might not prime correctly, leading to blockages in the IV line.
Healthcare professionals using these IV sets with B Braun's Infusomat, Outlook, or Vista pumps are most at risk. Patients receiving IV treatments with these sets could be affected if the sets are not properly checked.
Check for the catalog numbers 490488, 490492, or 490503 on the IV set packaging. These sets were sold with B Braun's Infusomat, Outlook, or Vista pumps.
Look for the catalog numbers 490488, 490492, or 490503 on the IV set packaging to confirm if it is recalled.
The hazard is potential backflow of medication from secondary IV containers into primary containers and the inability to prime the set, which could cause medication errors or blockages.
These IV sets are used with B Braun's Infusomat Space Large Volume Pump, Outlook Pump, and Vista Basic Pump.
Check the catalog number on the packaging: 490488, 490492, or 490503.
