  • Causa
    Baxter has received complaints for the buretrol ball-valve products with reports of air travelling below the ball-valve in the drip chamber and into the tubing. the ball-valve component is designed to prohibit the flow of air from the burette into the tubing as the burette is emptied. upon further investigation baxter has determined that the ball-valve feature may not function as expected, allowing air to flow past the valve and into the tubing at the completion of dose within the burette.
  • Acción
    Baxter is recalling all affected sets and replacing it with unaffected product codes.
