Becton Dickinson recalls infusion sets on safety issue

Becton, Dickinson and Company (BDX +0.7%) is recalling its Alaris Pump Model 1800 Infusion Sets that were made between May 1, 2016 and April 18, 2019 due to the potential for faster-than-expected delivery of medication or an unintended delivery when the pump is not running. The problem is apparently due to non-uniform thickness of the silicon segment of the set which can lead to non-uniform tubing collapse and incomplete occlusion.
