B Braun Medical recalls IV administration sets used with gravity and pump systems due to potential backflow of medication and inability to prime. Affected units include specific catalog numbers and pump models.
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 with gravity and pump systems because they can cause medication to flow backward into the main IV line and fail to prime properly. This could lead to incorrect dosing or infections if the set is not used correctly.
The IV set may allow medication from a secondary container to flow back into the primary IV line, which could cause incorrect dosing or contamination. Additionally, the set might not prime properly, leading to blockages that prevent medication delivery.
Healthcare professionals using IV sets with gravity or pump systems, particularly those administering medications via piggyback infusions. Patients receiving IV treatments with these sets are at risk if the set malfunctions.
