Urgent Medical Device Recall from BD

URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE RECALL: BD POWERLOC™ MAX INFUSION SET & SAFESTEP™ HUBER NEEDLE SETS

Dear Valued Customer,

BD is initiating a voluntary recall for the PowerLoc™ MAX Power Injectable Infusion Sets, SafeStep™ Huber Needle Sets, and the associated Port Access Kits containing the SafeStep™ Huber Needle Sets and the PowerLoc™ MAX Infusion Sets. 

BD has confirmed that the product catalog and lot numbers referenced in Attachment A (linked below) may develop cracks or breaks in the tubing near the Luer™ or Y site of the device during use.

Devices that have developed cracks or breaks can cause leakage resulting in exposure to chemicals such as chemotherapeutics or biohazard material (e.g. blood). A crack or break could result in potential blood loss, catheter occlusion, air embolism, under or interrupted infusion, or site contamination which could lead to infection.

Our records indicate that you may have been shipped product referenced in this letter between February 2019 and May 2020.
