B Braun recalls Microbore Extension Sets with 0.2 Micron Filter (V6215) due to incorrect label claiming air-eliminating filter when it does not have an air vent.
Label is incorrect. The product label indicates that the device contains an air eliminating filter. However, the filter utilized on this extension set is not indicated for removal of air and does not feature an air vent, which is common to air eliminating filters.
B Braun is recalling Microbore Extension Sets with 0.2 Micron Filter (catalog number V6215) because the label incorrectly states the device contains an air-eliminating filter. This could lead to improper air management during IV treatments if the filter is not designed to remove air.
The product label claims the filter eliminates air, but the actual filter does not have an air vent, which is necessary for air elimination. This could cause air to accumulate in the IV line, potentially leading to air embolism if not properly managed.
