Recalled Products

  1. Becton Dickinson Interlink Threaded Lock Cannula, 15g 

Reason

Becton Dickinson is conducting a recall of the BD Interlink threaded lock cannula. This recall has been initiated due to the potential for a small percentage of the lot to exhibit open seals. This adversely impacts unit package integrity and product sterility. BD has determined that there is a very low level of risk since most of the open seals are visible to the user. A decision was made to remove this lot from the market as a precautionary measure.
