Manufacturer Narrative
|
This report is being filed to provide additional information.Investigation: per information provided by the customer, the set was used on 5/2/2017 and the expiration date on the disposable set label was 5/1/2017.The spectra white blood cell disposable set sterilization is validated for 2 years and 2 months.Review of terumo bct's sterilization log indicates that the disposable set completed the sterilization cycle on 5/6/2015, excluding aeration, which means that the disposable set was used within the 2 year timeframe allotted timeframe.Terumo bct conservatively prints the 1st of each month as the expiration date, although this may be a shorter timeframe than the validated range.Based on this assessment, the kit is considered sterile and there is no risk to the patient.A review of the device history record (dhr) for this unit showed no irregularities during manufacturing that were relevant to this issue.Root cause: based on the statement provided by the customer, the operator used a potentially expired disposable set, which suggest operator error.
