What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported, but the potential for under-delivery of critical medication could lead to serious adverse health consequences.

Plain-English summary

ICU Medical, Inc. is recalling 350 units of REF: B9900-287, 82" (208 cm) Appx 10.4 ml, 10 Drop Admin Set, w/Pre-Slit Port, Clave, 1 Ext, Rotating Luer, Sterile R, UDI: (01)00887709016842. The affected lot number is 4167007. The product was distributed to facilities in 45 US states and Canada.

The recall was initiated because the IV administration sets may contain a 15 drops/mL drop cannula instead of the intended 10 drops/mL drop cannula within the drip chamber. This discrepancy could result in inaccurate delivery of the intended infusion volume, specifically under-delivery. Under-delivery of critical medication may lead to serious adverse health consequences.
