B Braun recalls specific IV administration sets used with gravity and pump systems due to potential medication backflow and inability to prime. Affected units have catalog number 457:504.
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 administration sets used with gravity and pump systems because they can cause medication to flow backward into the main IV line and fail to prime properly. This could lead to incorrect dosing or infections if the set is used without proper checks.
The IV sets can allow medication from a secondary (piggyback) container to flow back into the primary IV line. They also may not prime correctly, which could cause blockages or incorrect medication delivery.
Healthcare professionals using IV sets with B Braun's Infusomat, Outlook, or Vista pumps are most at risk. Patients receiving IV treatments with these specific sets may also be affected.
Check for the catalog number 457504 on the set. These sets were sold with B Braun's Infusomat, Outlook, and Vista pumps. The product label includes the specific model and catalog number.
Look for the catalog number 457504 on the IV set label.
