B. Braun Infusomat Space Pump Recall for Anti-Free Flow Clip Defect
B. Braun Medical is recalling 38,225 Infusomat Space Pumps because the anti-free flow clip catch may break if the IV set is inserted incorrectly.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The agency classified this as a Class I recall, which typically indicates a reasonable probability of serious adverse health consequences or death. However, the source text explicitly states that free flow protection is still ensured even if the clip catch is broken, suggesting the hazard is mitigated or theoretical in the described scenario, aligning with a moderate severity for a precautionary recall of a medical device component.
Plain-English summary
B. Braun Medical, Inc. is recalling 38,225 Infusomat Space Pumps (US Version) with specific software versions. The affected pumps are intended for use with adults, pediatrics, and neonates to provide infusions of parenteral fluids, medications, and blood products. The recall covers pump model numbers 8713050U, 8713050U-99, 8713050US, 8713060U, and 8713060U-99 with various serial numbers.
The recall was initiated because the firm became aware of the potential for the anti-free flow clip catch, located on the inside of the pump door, to break. This breakage can occur if the IV set anti-free flow clip is incorrectly inserted into the pump and the pump door is forced closed. The source text notes that if the clip catch is broken and the door is opened, free flow protection is still ensured, but the text is truncated regarding the consequences of manually removing the set without door closure.
The affected pumps were distributed nationwide, including Puerto Rico and the states of AL, AK, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, MO, MT, NV, NJ, NM, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, OR, PA, SC, TN, TX, VT, VA, WA, WV, and WI. The source text does not specify instructions for consumers or healthcare providers on how to proceed with the recall.
