March 27, 2019 11:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time
LITTLE ELM, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Retractable Technologies, Inc. (“Retractable”) (NYSE American: RVP) announced today that on March 26, 2019, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the district court’s finding which had determined that neither disgorgement of profits nor further injunctive relief should be granted to Retractable in its case against Becton, Dickinson and Company (“BD”), despite finding that BD falsely advertised its products for years. Retractable is evaluating this ruling and conferring with legal counsel regarding possible future action.
Retractable manufactures and markets VanishPoint® and Patient Safe® safety medical products and the EasyPoint® needle. The VanishPoint® syringe, blood collection, and IV catheter products are designed to prevent needlestick injuries and product reuse by retracting the needle directly from the patient, effectively reducing exposure to the contaminated needle. Patient Safe® syringes are uniquely designed to reduce the risk of bloodstream infections resulting from catheter hub contamination. The EasyPoint® is a retractable needle that can be used with luer lock syringes, luer slip syringes, and prefilled syringes to give injections. The EasyPoint® needle also can be used to aspirate fluids and for blood collection. Retractable's products are distributed by various specialty and general line distributors.
