H.6.Investigation summary: the customer complaint is for one (1) vial with a broken cap (post sample collection) from item 491452 lot number 3060223.Material 491452 is produced at the bd mebane, nc facility on a validated automated manufacturing line.The capper section caps the vials to a validated application torque.The capper is validated to inspect for application torque and unseated or missing caps.Vials that fail to meet inspection requirements (i.E., outside of the validated application torque) are rejected automatically after the capper section.To ensure that the capper remains in validated state, a quarterly preventive maintenance (pm) is established that is used to confirm accuracy of application torque.The pm is performed by using a calibrated torque verifier that is compared against the application torque value.Production of material 491452 lot 3060223 started on 07mar2023.A review of the two (2) pm events that bracketed the production date identified that the results of the verification were acceptable.A total of 800 vials were qc inspected prior to product disposition with a total of 0 defects observed.An additional 800 vials were leak tested in a vacuum chamber during in-process testing and did not identify any leaking or cracked cap defects.The review of the manufacturing dhr for the lot number identified that it was complete and accurate with no indication of abnormal activities during manufacturing.The review of the bill of materials (bom) for 491452 lot 3060223 identified that raw cap lot number material 700030951 lot number 3017888 was used during the production.A review of the incoming inspection results for 700030951 lot number 3017888 identified 800 caps were inspected from the lot and passed the acceptance criteria with zero defects identified.A sample was not returned to the facility for evaluation.A visual retain analysis was performed on one clamshell (25 vials) from item 491452 lot 3060223.No cracked/broken caps were identified during the retain analysis.A picture was provided that shows a cracked cap.The complaint is confirmed.A 12-month complaint review for the defect mode of broken caps was performed and identified previous complaints for the item number and a previous broken cap complaint for the lot number.Bd performs regular trending to determine if a corrective and preventative action (capa) is required, and as of this time the threshold for a capa has not been reached.Bd will continue to monitor and evaluate trends.
