Event Description

It was reported that an unspecified number of unspecified bd syringes separated from the hub during use.The following was reported by the initial reporter: "it was reported that needle hub separated from the syringe.Verbatim: photos attached sent: saturday (b)(6) 2021, 5:07 pm.I am a diabetic, and as such am prescribed insulin syringes for subcutaneous injections.Though sizes of needles have changed over the years, i have been prescribed and used bd syringes for 10+ years.In the past 2 weeks i've had a number of incidences with these syringes which have never been an issue before; specifically the plastic head/needle of the syringe becoming detached, either when attempting to open, or coming out that way straight from the bag.About 2 weeks ago but happened back to back at work, when i only had 2 syringes on my person to get me through the day.The first one came off as i was attempting to open the cap, the other in my pocket had become detached just from bumping against my leg.Fortunately i was able to reattach the head and use it for my needed dose, but understand doing so is not a sanitary option.For what it may help i can provide any batch/serial numbers you may want from the box itself, but i wanted to voice my concern about this recent trend, see if this is a common occurence, and see if i might be able to have these few replaced.Thank you for your time, and help.".
