Hazard

On October 18, 2024, BD has identified through customer complaints and an increase in field failures / replacements of the power supply module (part number 650781, Power Module AC-DC 250W 12/24V M3S4S6) on BD FACSLyric flow cytometers, which has the potential for the instruments to fail to power on and/or stay on. The potential power supply failure on BD FACSLyric Flow Cytometer may lead to risks to the laboratory staff including inhalation of fumes followed by shortness of breath or coughing if failure occurs during laboratory working hours. The patient may be asked to return for additional biospecimen collection procedure and risks associated with the procedure (bruising, pain, bleeding, etc.). In addition, patient specimen loss and/ or delay providing results of testing results. There may be additional risks to the laboratory staff including inhalation of fumes followed by shortness of breath or coughing if failure occurs during laboratory working hours. In addition, the patient may be asked to return for additional biospecimen collection procedure and risks associated with the procedure (bruising, pain, bleeding, etc.). In the Notification Letter sent on November 20, 2024, customers are instructed to continue their normal operation of your BD FACSLyric Flow Cytometer according to the Instructions For Use after immediately inspecting inventory for the specific catalog and power supply serial numbers listed in the notification letter and follow the instructions listed under Actions for Clinical Users.
