FDA's MAUDE database holds 414 reports that name the brand "BD Preset Eclipse" (blood specimen collection device), received between April 2018 and August 2026; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Becton Dickinson And Bd. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

33 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, down 78% from 147 in the 12 months before. FDA releases MAUDE data monthly; reports can arrive months after an event, so the newest months grow in later releases. The event types recorded are malfunction (99.5%) and injury (0.5%); across all tubes, vials, systems, serum separators, blood collection reports (product code JKA) death is recorded in 0% and malfunction in 96.7%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are leak/splash (44.9%), device contamination with chemical or other material (14%) and volume accuracy problem (10.1%). The patient problems coded most often are no patient involvement and needle stick/puncture. FDA states that "MDR data alone cannot be used to establish rates of events, evaluate a change in event rates over time or compare event rates between devices. The number of reports cannot be interpreted or used in isolation to reach conclusions about the existence, severity, or frequency of problems associated with devices." It adds that the reporting system "has limitations, including the potential submission of incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, unverified, or biased data."
