About This Product

Infusion sets enable IV medications to be delivered from a bag or bottle into a patient’s vein. They are used with both gravity and pump-assisted IV systems.

Why This Is Dangerous

Backflow from a secondary IV container into the primary line can lead to incorrect medication dosing. An occlusion can prevent proper priming of the line, risking under- or over-infusion.

Industry Context

This recall is not part of a broader industry pattern.

Real-World Impact

Healthcare providers and patients could face delays or interruptions in IV therapy if an affected set is in use. The recall could drive replacement costs and require reeducation on IV administration.

Practical Guidance

How to identify if yours is affected

  1. Review packaging for catalog numbers 362032 through 490101.
  2. Cross-check the product label with the recall catalog numbers.
  3. Verify that the infusion set is intended for Infusomat Space, Outlook, or Vista Basic pumps.

Where to find product info

How to prevent similar issues

  • Always verify recall status before replacing IV sets.
