Manufacturer Narrative

H10: the medical device manufacturer (d3) and manufacturing location (g1) for the straub product was selected as unknown due to system limitations.The correct medical device manufacturer and manufacturing location are straub medical us.H10: manufacturing review: a manufacturing review was conducted and there was nothing found to indicate there was a manufacturing related cause for this event.Investigation summary: the sample was returned for evaluation.During physical investigation the catheter had no tension on a tip and there was no rotation with the hand magnet.No visible damage was observed initially.The test guidewire passed with a slight resistance.After flushing tension on the tip was observed and lower aspiration was achieved.The deformation of the guidewire stopper was observed which resulted in lower aspiration level.However, the investigation is confirmed for the mechanical jam and its not confirmed for the entrapment of the device.A clear root cause could not be identified but a blockage of the catheter represents a known inherent risk.Labeling review: a review of product labeling documentation (e.G., procedural instructions, indications, warnings, precautions, cautions, possible complications, contraindications, nursing guide, and unit label) did not find any product labeling inadequacy.H11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
