B Braun is recalling STREAMLINE Bloodline Long Version tubing used in hemodialysis to prevent flow restrictions that could cause therapy delays. This happens if the patient connector isn't fully inserted into the Locksite during dialysis procedures.
If the patient connector isn't fully inserted into the Locksite, the internal septum may not open properly. This can restrict blood flow during prograde rinseback procedures, forcing clinicians to switch to retrograde flow which delays treatment.
