B Braun recalls STREAMLINE Bloodline Sets for haemodialysis. Incomplete patient connector insertion may cause flow restrictions during dialysis, requiring switch to retrograde flow. Affected units have model SL-2:010M2096.
Incomplete insertion of the patient connector of the Streamline Airless System Hemodialysis Bloodline to the Locksite may result in the potential for occlusion during prograde rinseback procedures. If the patient connector is not fully inserted into the Locksite, the internal septum may not open fully enough to prevent restrictions to flow. may cause delays in therapy while clinicians are forced to switch to retrograde flow method
B Braun is recalling STREAMLINE Bloodline Sets used in haemodialysis. Incomplete insertion of the patient connector can cause flow restrictions, forcing clinicians to switch to a less efficient retrograde flow method during treatment.
If the patient connector isn't fully inserted into the Locksite, the internal septum may not open completely. This can restrict blood flow during prograde rinseback procedures, requiring clinicians to switch to retrograde flow which is less efficient and may delay treatment.
Healthcare professionals using haemodialysis equipment with the STREAMLINE Bloodline Set model SL-2010M2096 are most at risk. Patients receiving dialysis with this specific set may experience treatment delays.
Check for model number SL-2010M2096 on the set. The product was sold with all unexpired lot numbers and has UDI-DI 04046964367786.
Ensure the patient connector is fully inserted into the Locksite before use to prevent flow restrictions.
