Plain-English summary
The BD Connecta BD Luer-Lok 360 stopcock, REF 394910, UDI-DI 00382903949106, is being recalled. BD Connecta stopcocks are used to administer fluids or medication through one or two different ports via an IV cannula or extension tube. The action covers 2,465,500 units.
The stated reason is that, due to stopcock issues when using the plastic luer-lok syringe, the connection at Port C may over thread or continue to spin rather than tightening securely. According to the manufacturer, this behaviour has led some clinical users to perceive the connection as unstable. The FDA classified the action as Class II.
Distribution was across 39 US states and the District of Columbia, and to Japan. The stopcocks are supplied to healthcare facilities rather than sold to consumers.
Facilities should identify affected stock using the catalog number, UDI-DI and lot numbers in the recall notice and follow the instructions issued by BD.
