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 have specific catalog numbers and are sold with Infusomat, Outlook, and Vista pumps.
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 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 the set is not used correctly.
The IV set can allow medication from a secondary container to flow back into the primary container, which may cause incorrect dosing. It also cannot be properly primed, meaning air could get trapped and lead to blockages or infections.
Healthcare professionals using IV sets with B Braun Medical's Infusomat, Outlook, or Vista pumps are most at risk. Patients receiving IV treatments with these sets may also be affected if the recall applies to their equipment.
Check for the catalog number 490489 on the IV set. The product is labeled as 'IV ADMIN SET 15DR, 92 IN W/EXT SET 9 IN.' and is used with B Braun's Infusomat, Outlook, or Vista pumps.
Look for the catalog number 490489 on the IV set label to confirm it is affected.
