- Recall started
- 20 August 2026
- Reason
- Breast biopsy and tissue removal system may experience the following errors: 1) Probe calibration and /or handheld driver failure (code HH01-00020009) , 2) Pressure sensor (code E01-0054000E), which prompts the user to restart and re-calibrate; errors may lead to interruption or prolongation of the biopsy procedure, or the need for additional tissue sampling or repeat biopsy.

Ongoing Class II Medical devices
- Recall started
- 21 August 2025
- Reason
- Software version 3.35 of the Venclose digiRF Generator incorporates a catheter verification feature specifically designed to detect internal wiring anomalies in Venclose EVSRF Ablation Catheters prior to clinical use. This automated diagnostic check is executed immediately upon catheter connection to the generator, occurring before the procedure interface becomes accessible. When a catheter fails this verification process, the generator displays a Red X indicator on the screen without accompanying error codes, effectively disabling catheter functionality. However, BD has determined that software version 3.35 generates false positive failures due to temperature-dependent verification parameters, incorrectly flagging properly functioning Venclose EVSRF Ablation Catheters as defective when the catheter temperature is not at steady state during the check initiation.

Ongoing Class II Medical devices
- Recall started
- 4 September 2024
- Reason
- The Venclose" RF Ablation Catheters may have been manufactured with internal wiring error. The red and yellow signal wires were soldered on swapped ports of the catheter PCB. This error in wire configuration would lead to power being applied through the proximal 3/4th of the heating coil, bypassing the thermocouple, which will then cause the generator to overdrive the catheter in an attempt to reach desired temperature set point. The wire attachment error causes the device to reach temperatures exceeding the levels intended for therapeutic efficacy, while the console is falsely indicating that temperature has not yet been reached, thus increasing the risk of harm due to excessive temperature.

- Reason
- Recanalization systems may be in a manufacturing mode that allows the system to continuously run without the typical 30 second pauses, and 4-minute warning/5-minute restart required messages to indicate the ten-minute maximum catheter use time has been exceeded, which may increase the risk of the device overheating or breaking.

- Reason
- The internal diameter of the coaxial cannula may be smaller or larger than the external diameter of the biopsy needle, and the length of the cannula may exceed the stated length on the label.

- Reason
- The catheter packaging incorrectly listed the balloon size as 8mm X 20mm instead of the intended size 8mm X 40mm. If undetected, the user will advance the longer than expected balloon to the lesion. The potential exists that upon inflation, non-diseased vessel, kidney or sections of the AV dialysis fistulae may be dilated, potentially causing a varying degree of injury. This may require additional medical or surgical intervention.

- Reason
- The firm has become aware of a potential problem with their venous and arterial magnetic catheters may be at risk of experiencing a magnetic deficiency, which may result in the magnets failing to attract to one another. This may result in procedural delay in obtaining or creating a functional fistula and need for additional contrast to perform the necessary fluoroscopy. This can pose an incremental risk of harm to a diabetic patient's kidney function.
