The following were reviewed as part of this investigation: patient severity, frequency analysis, applicable previous investigation(s), sample (if available), applicable fmea documents, labeling, and applicable manufacture records.Based on a review of this information, the following was concluded: the complaint of a break is confirmed and corrective action has been taken regarding failures of this type.One 4 fr dual lumen power picc provena was returned for evaluation.An initial visual observation showed the purple luer hub was missing and use residue was observed throughout the sample.The pinch clamp on the red lumen was observed to be engaged and the pinch clamp on the purple lumen was observed to be missing.The ink on both extension legs was observed to be worn and faded, and a needleless injection cap was observed to be attached to the red luer hub.A microscopic observation revealed the fracture surface of the extension tubing of the purple lumen was rough and exhibited cracks/fissures and beach marks.A lot history review (lhr) review is not possible, as no manufacturing lot number has been provided by the complainant.
