B Braun Medical recalls specific IV administration sets used with gravity and pump systems due to potential backflow of medication and inability to prime. Affected units include catalog number 490208.
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 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 contamination of the medication.
The IV sets can allow medication from a secondary (piggyback) container to flow back into the primary IV container. This can cause incorrect dosing or contamination of the medication. The sets also may not prime correctly, leading to blockages.
Healthcare professionals using these IV sets with gravity or pump systems are most at risk. Patients receiving IV treatments with the recalled sets could be affected if the sets are not properly primed.
Check for the catalog number 490208 on the IV administration set. These sets were sold with BBMI's Infusomat Space, Outlook, and Vista Basic pumps.
