B Braun recalls specific IV extension sets used with Infusomat pumps due to potential medication backflow and inability to prime. Affected units include catalog numbers 490448, 490465, 490486, and 490577.
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 extension sets used with Infusomat pumps because they can cause medication to flow backward into the main IV line and fail to prime properly. This could lead to incorrect medication dosing or infections if not addressed.
These extension sets can allow medication from a secondary IV container to flow back into the primary IV line, potentially causing incorrect dosing or contamination. They may also become blocked (occluded) during use, preventing proper medication flow.
Healthcare professionals using these extension sets with Infusomat pumps are most at risk, particularly those administering medications via gravity or pump systems.
Check for catalog numbers 490448, 490465, 490486, or 490577 on the extension sets used with Infusomat pumps. These sets are labeled as 'Extension Set' with lengths of 18, 52, 49 inches, or 12 CARESTITE LADS.
Look for catalog numbers 490448, 490465, 490486, or 490577 on the extension set.
