Action the firm took

On August 7, 2024, the firm notified customers via "URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION" letters which specified that previous recall RES 92978 had been extended to include additional serial numbers as well as one additional model number. The updated serial numbers for the prior models has been documented under RES 92978. This present record documents the addition of model number 8713050U. Customers were instructed to identify affected units in their facilities and to place the provided stickers on impacted units to aid clinical and biomedical staff in identifying units which require sensor exchange and application of interim control measures described in the letter. The firm recommends that consignees use non-impacted devices for the delivery of high-risk medications, and do not use impacted serial numbers for high-risk medications until the upstream occlusion sensor can be replaced. Return the product correction acknowledgement for to B.Braun Medical Inc. Quality Assurance department by faxing the form to (610) 849-1197 or e-mail to PA_QualityAssurance.BBMUS_Service@bbraunusa.com even if the total inventory in your possession is zero (0).
