When drawing blood, the advanced safety needle is not fully retracting; post collection the sheath does not cover the needle entirely leaving the tip of the needle exposed.Potential for a needlestick.Manufacturer response for blood collection needle, (brand not provided) (per site reporter).The vice president of sales was informed, there is no identifying information, lot #, serial #, etc.The response from the vp was to take all of the kurin stock away and would be sending new product with the old bd needle.
