It was reported that bd insyte autoguard needles break during the retraction process.The following information was provided by the initial reporter: my team is reporting that our latest batch of angiocaths seem to be malfunctioning, particularly when it comes to retracting the needle after placement of the cannula.Needles have snapped off at the hub as well.This obviously poses a serious risk of needle stick and body fluid exposure.This has occurred several times.The customer is not sure exactly how many times this has occurred but it started with their newest inventory of insyte pivs.Describe patient/hcp/user impact: none.
