BD Vacutainer K2 EDTA (K2E) 3.6mg Blood Collection Tube (13 x 75 mm x 2.0 mL). Catalog Number: 367841. Used for whole blood hematology determinations, immunohematology testing and blood donor screening.

A limited portion of the lot was manufactured with less than the required amount of K2EDTA additive, an anticoagulant, which may cause erroneous results that could lead to specimen recollection and potential delay of treatment or misdiagnosis/mismanagement of treatment and serious complications, such as failure to detect thrombocytosis or postponing surgery.

In August of 2017 All US direct consignees were contacted via e-mail and/or UPS mail. An Urgent Product Removal Recall letter was issued, identifying the affected device and the reason for the recall. It also requested customers to review their inventory and quarantine any affected devices, which will be returned to the firm for replacement. The Customer Recall Response Form should be completed and returned regardless of whether there is any affected devices on hand. For questions or concerns please contact Customer Service at 1-855-215-4992.
