Becton Dickinson is recalling Intraosseous Needle Set Kits, Intraosseous Manual Driver Kits, and Intraosseous Powered Drivers for three separate issues:
- The stylet may be difficult to separate from the needle or may not separate at all. This may result in inadvertent removal of the entire needle assembly during placement, or the clinician may be unable to remove the stylet from the needle, both resulting in functional loss of intraosseous access.
- The needle safety mechanism may not properly deploy as the stylet is removed from the intraosseous needle after placement.
- Metal discs may stick in the powered driver, which may render it unusable.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has identified this as a Class I recall, the most serious type of recall. Use of these devices may cause serious injuries, serious health consequences, or death.
