Manufacturer Reason for Recall | The safety cap attached to needles within the needle sets may become dislodged exposing the needle and potentially causing the needle to protrude through the packaging. If this issue is not detected, the immediate risk of exposure to the affected devices is needle stick injury to the clinician or health care professional. In addition, a puncture of the packaging may compromise the sterility of the needle. |
