B Braun Streamline Bloodline Set Recalled for Potential Occlusion

B Braun Medical Inc. is recalling Streamline Bloodline Sets because incomplete connector insertion may cause flow restrictions during hemodialysis.

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 medical device where a defect could lead to flow restrictions and therapy delays, representing a risk of harm without reported injuries, which aligns with the High severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

B Braun Medical Inc. is recalling Streamline Bloodline Sets for Dialog DR, model SL-2010M2096A, used to transfer blood between a patient and a hemodialyzer during hemodialysis. The recall involves 1,126,211 units distributed nationwide in the United States. All unexpired lot numbers are affected.

The recall is due to a potential design issue where the patient connector may not insert fully into the Locksite. If this occurs, the internal septum may not open completely, which can restrict blood flow during prograde rinseback procedures. This may cause delays in therapy and require clinicians to switch to a retrograde flow method.

Healthcare facilities and patients should check their inventory for this specific model and contact B Braun Medical Inc. for further instructions on how to proceed with the recall.
