B Braun recalls certain Infusomat Space Infusion Systems for potential false occlusion alarms from electrostatic buildup during use. Affected pumps may need repair or replacement to prevent incorrect alerts.
Extension of previous recall RES 92978. Pumps have the potential for upstream occlusion sensor to cease proper function due to buildup of electrostatic charge during operation triggering false downstream and upstream occlusion alarms. Additional devices have been affected.
B Braun is recalling specific Infusomat pumps that may trigger false alarms due to electrostatic buildup. This could cause unnecessary alerts that might lead to treatment interruptions if not addressed.
Electrostatic charge builds up during pump operation and can cause the upstream occlusion sensor to malfunction. This may trigger false alarms for both upstream and downstream occlusion, potentially leading to unnecessary treatment pauses.
Healthcare professionals using the recalled pumps for medical infusion therapy are most at risk. Patients receiving treatments through these pumps could experience interruptions in care if alarms are misinterpreted.
Check for product code 8713050U on the pump. Affected units have serial numbers listed in the recall notice: 52226, 107529, 123259, 123815, 123843, 139003, 147678, 147721, 147725, 239018, 239165, 239231, 239279, 339337.
Look for the serial number on the pump to confirm if it is one of the affected numbers listed in the recall.
