Product codes and lots: Reorder Number: 309653; Lot numbers beginning with the numbers 5, 6, or 7 and also the following lot numbers. 8010954, 8014571, 8031115, 8031117, 8031119, 8031124, 8031133, 8038154, 8038158, 8045564, 8045567, 8058890, 8058896, 8058898, 8058900, 8058902, 8072401, 8072409, 8072414, 8072419, 8079645, and 8079656. Note: In order to make the recall practical for customers to implement, BD has requested the return of lots beginning with the numbers 5,6 or 7. while not all lots beginning with the digits 5,6 and 7 exhibit the issue, it is much easier to instruct customers to return these lots, rather than have customrs examine/check a more comprehensive list of affected and unaffected lots.

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.
