B. Braun Medical Inc. is recalling approximately 1,298,454 units (expanded to 1,589,674 units) of Streamline Bloodline Sets (Model SL-2010M2096) used for dialysis treatments. The recall was initiated because the arterial and venous connectors on the bloodlines may be damaged. This defect can cause micro-air bubbles to appear in the bloodline and trigger frequent air-in-line alarms on the dialysis machine, which can disrupt patient care.
Damaged connectors can allow air to leak into the patient's blood circuit during treatment. This poses a serious risk of an air embolism, which occurs when air bubbles enter the bloodstream and block blood flow, or can lead to inadequate dialysis if the machine continuously alarms and stops due to detected air.
Quantity 1,298,454 units (expanded to 1,589,674 as of 3/5/26).
