Changes to ordering and supply of gravity IV administration sets from Monday 17 January
January 14, 2022
From Monday 17 January, all areas will move permanently from Becton Dickinson (BD) gravity sets to Braun Gravity Safesets due to ongoing issues with BD supply. These gravity administration sets were used in spring 2021, but for further information on their use, and changes to order codes, please ensure colleagues have access to the poster below.
