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 blood administration sets used with gravity IV systems and certain pumps. These sets could allow medication to flow backward into the main IV line and become difficult to prime, which may lead to incorrect dosing.

Check for catalog number 490438 on the set. The sets were sold with Infusomat, Outlook, or Vista Basic pumps and labeled as Y-TYPE BLOOD SET, HAND PUMP, 146 IN.
