Plain-English summary
B. Braun Medical Inc is recalling 9,864,165 units of Streamline Bloodline Sets for Dialog hemodialysis machines (model SL-2010M2096, all unexpired lot numbers) due to an insertion defect. This recall affects nationwide US distribution.
The patient connector may not fully insert into the Locksite, preventing the internal septum from opening fully enough. This incomplete insertion can restrict fluid flow during prograde rinseback procedures, which may cause delays in dialysis therapy. Clinicians may be forced to switch to retrograde flow methods to work around the problem.
This is a Class II medical device recall assigned recall number Z-3178-2024. As of the recall announcement, no illnesses or injuries have been reported in association with this defect.
