(b)(4).Additional information received from account: the catheter was secured to the patient skin via a plastic holder which was sutured via 2 small holes to the patients skin.The catheter could rotate freely but it slipped out of the holder.The customer provided two photos for analysis.The complaint of catheter migration was able to be confirmed by the photos.The photos show the suture wing clip separated from the catheter body.A complete visual inspection could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.The instructions for use (ifu) provided with this kit warns the user, "do not apply excessive force in placing or removing catheter or guidewire.Excessive force can cause component damage or breakage.If damage is suspected or withdrawal cannot be easily accomplished, radiographic visualization should be obtained and further consultation requested." the customer report of catheter migrated was confirmed by visual inspection of the customer supplied photos.However, full complaint verification testing could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.Without the device to evaluate, the probable cause could not be determined from the available information.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
