Reason for recall

BD Intraosseous Needle Kits may exhibit: 1) Increased force required to remove the stylet from intraosseous needle during placement may cause removal of the entire needle assembly and loss of intraosseous access; 2) Stylet safety mechanism may not engage as the stylet is removed; 3) Metal discs in the powered driver may stick rendering the driver unusable.

Foreign material recalls cover pieces of metal, plastic, glass, wood or other objects that got into the product during processing and could cause injury if eaten.
