Issue
BD has identified via internal inspections that the packaging of some Hickman catheter and Broviac catheter kits may have damage present on the outer tray, potentially compromising the sterile barrier. This product features a double-tray packaging structure (outer tray and inner tray). The inner tray, which contains the catheter and accessories, is sealed inside the outer tray along with the instructions for use. The sterility of the outer surface of the inner tray and the instructions for use may be compromised.
