B Braun Medical recalls IV administration sets used with gravity and pump systems due to potential medication backflow and inability to prime. Affected units have specific catalog numbers and expiration dates.
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 with gravity and pump 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 may get trapped and cause blockages or incorrect medication delivery.
Healthcare professionals using IV administration 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.
Check for catalog number 490508 on the IV set. These sets were sold with B Braun Medical's Infusomat, Outlook, or Vista pumps between 2020 and 2024, with an expiration date of 36 months from manufacturing.
