Product: BD Needle Kit for Powered Driver 15mm x 15Ga, REF: D015151NK, BD Needle Kit for Powered Driver 25mm x 15Ga, REF: D015251NK, BD Needle Kit for Powered Driver 35mm x 15Ga, REF: D015351NK, BD Needle Kit for Powered Driver 45mm x 15Ga, REF: D015451NK, BD Needle Kit for Powered Driver 55mm x 15Ga, REF: D015551NK
Product code: FMI Needle, Hypodermic, Single Lumen
Reason for recall: After placement of intraosseous (IO) needle sets, used when intravenous access is difficult or impossible to obtain in emergent, urgent, or medically necessary cases, users may experience difficulty/inability to remove obturator, due to it locking to the needle hub, due to out-of-tolerance dimensions and IFU unclarity, which may result in new needle placement, which may result in delayed therapy
Root cause tag: labeling and UDI
FDA root cause: Component change control
Action: On 7/30/2026, recall notices were mailed/emailed: If rotation and locking occurs, the clinician may need to obtain a new IO needle or other form of vascular access device, such as a Peripheral IV catheter. Alternate vascular access approaches, including additional peripheral IV attempts, or central venous access may continue to be pursued based on clinical judgment/protocols. Affected product should not be used to establish IO access. For patients in whom potentially affected intraosseous needles are currently in use/or have been used and are/were functioning properly, no additional steps need to be taken. 1. Destroy all affected needle set kits, or quarantined until disposal. 2. Provide a copy of this notification to any customers and/or facilities you may have distributed devices to. 3. Complete and return the attached Customer Response Form via email to [email protected] Distributors were also asked to do the following: - A customer letter template is provided to create your own letter to be sent to all customers. - Provide product replacement for all product destroyed by your customer. Questions contact firm at 1-844-823-5433 or [email protected] Firm has acquired new molds with improved dimensional controls. Instructions For Use will be updated with the following to optimize needle / obturator(stylet) / drill handling: Do not pull back on the drill and needle, release the trigger prematurely, or rock/bend the needle during insertion. These actions may result in the needle and drive adapter hubs to rotate and lock together resulting in a bent needle, difficult stylet removal, need for a new device, and/or delay in therapy. Warning: Do not rotate or try to unscrew the drive adapter hub while removing the stylet. These actions may cause the needle and drive adapter hubs to rotate and lock together, resulting in difficult stylet removal, need for a new device, and/or delay in therapy.

About this record

Sourced from the FDA device recall database and the FDA enforcement reports, both ingested from openFDA. The recall record supplies the product, the reason and the product code; the enforcement report supplies the classification. The two datasets are exported by FDA on different days, and the date above is the older of the two, so nothing on this page is newer than it says.

MDM adds the root cause tag, derived from FDA’s own root cause text, and the cross-links to the product code, the clearances named on the record and MDM coverage. Where a recall has not been joined to an enforcement report, no classification is shown.
