B Braun Medical recalls anesthesia IV sets that may cause medication backflow between IV containers, risking incorrect dosing. Affected sets include specific models sold with Infusomat pumps.
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 anesthesia IV sets used with gravity or pump administration systems. These sets could allow medication to flow backward from secondary to primary IV containers, potentially causing incorrect dosing if not properly primed.
The IV sets may allow medication to flow backward from a secondary (piggyback) IV container into the primary IV container. This can happen when the set is not properly primed, leading to potential incorrect dosing of medication.
Healthcare professionals using these IV sets during anesthesia procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving IV medication through these sets could experience incorrect dosing if the backflow occurs.
Check for the specific model labeled as 'IV ADMIN SET W/15 DROPS/ML, 134 IN.' with catalog number 490477. These sets were sold with Infusomat, Outlook, and Vista Basic pumps.
