What happened

Becton Dickinson & Company has recalled BD Vacutainer Luer Lok Access Devices nationwide, with distribution identified in Illinois. The devices, which are sterile, single-use connectors designed to attach to catheter ports with threaded female luers, may shed contaminant particles into urine specimens. When used with Sysmex UF-1000i or UX-2000 Analyzers, these particles can be misidentified as red blood cells, resulting in falsely elevated red blood cell counts in test results. The recall affects approximately 288 million units across all lots of Catalog Number 36490200 and 364902 (with UDI codes 60382903649022 and 50382903649025, respectively) within their expiration dates.
