B. Braun Medical, Inc. is recalling 33,820,976 units of Infusomat Administration Sets due to defects where the tubing diameter is incorrect or the tubing length is too short. These defects can trigger false air-in-line alarms, which automatically stop the infusion pump and interrupt the delivery of critical medications. These medical devices were distributed nationwide in the U.S., as well as in Canada and Germany, through various hospital and clinical channels.
If the pump stops during the administration of life-sustaining medications, such as vasopressors for hemodynamically unstable patients, it can cause serious injury or death. The tubing defect prevents the device from accurately sensing air or maintaining steady flow, leading to immediate therapy interruptions.
