Becton Dickinson is recalling its BD Nexiva Closed IV Catheter System Dual Port 18GA 1.25 IN due to a risk of contaminated needlestick injuries from a faulty safety mechanism. This could happen if the needle shield fails to protect during use, potentially exposing healthcare workers to bloodborne pathogens.
The catheter's needle shield may fail to stay in place during use, increasing the chance of accidental needlestick injuries. This could lead to exposure to bloodborne pathogens if the needle is not properly protected after insertion.
Healthcare professionals using the BD Nexiva catheter system for IV procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving care with this device may also be affected if the catheter is used improperly.
Check for the catalog number 383539 and lot number 8087800 with UDI 0130382903835394 on the packaging or device. The product is used for IV procedures in healthcare settings.
