B Braun Medical recalls anesthesia IV sets used with certain pumps due to potential medication backflow 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 anesthesia IV sets used with gravity and pump administration systems. The recall is due to a risk of medication backflow from secondary IV containers into primary containers and the inability to properly prime the set, which could lead to incorrect dosing.
The IV set can allow medication from a secondary (piggyback) container to flow back into the primary container. This could cause incorrect dosing or medication mix-ups. The set may also not prime properly, leading to blockages or incomplete medication delivery.
