  BD Connecta" BD Luer-Lok" 360 REF 394910 UDI-DI code: 00382903949106 BD Connecta" Stopcocks are used to administer fluids or medication through one or two different ports via an IV cannula or extension tube. The ports can be used to sample blood or for hemodynamic monitoring. When used with IV lipid nutritional products, the stopcock device can be used for up to 24 hours.

  Due to stopcock issues when using the plastic luer-lok syringe, the connection at the Port C may over thread or continue to spin rather than tightening securely. This behavior has led some clinical users to perceive the connection as unstable.

  In certain situations, following a system reboot, one or more modules may have become unreachable via the remote connectivity interface. When this occurred, there was potential for delays in plate retrieval from the incubator while connectivity was restored. This issue was intermittent and did not affect test results, performance of the assay, or sample integrity.
