Investigation summary: ten samples of catalog 405482 were receive to bd juncos on (b)(6) 2018.Samples included all assembly components, such as needle and stylet (17ga x 3 1/2in tuohy) and the plastic shield.Cannula 17ga 3-1/2in tw part number 31442 is purchase from columbus and visual and dimensional testing are done as per procedure.A review of the device history record was completed for lot #7342831.This lot was manufactured from 11dec17 to 12dec17 on lawton machine under sub-assembly part no.405482 order 105603553.The inspections related to length measurements were the effective length and visual 10x test.Tests are performed during shift startup (16 units) and every 4 hours.Final inspection by quality was performed on 13dec17.According to the inspection record bdm0180, visual and functional characteristics were in compliance with the specification.Lot was released for packaging (b)(6) 2017 and packed as a bulk on (b)(6) 2017 as 405482 lot 7342831 order#105603553.The expiration date for this lot is 31 dec 2022.A total of 16,000 units were released on (b)(6) 2017.No machine interventions, breakdowns, qn¿s and/or ncmrs were reported for this lot.Preventive maintenance on the lawton machine was conducted as per schedule.Review of instrument calibrations included in the inspection records was conducted and they were calibrated within their calibration due dates.Samples tested showed four out of ten values were out of specification.However, per bd juncos internal procedure finish point length measurement is a reference length, which means that finish point length is not a critical specification and does not impact the quality or function of the product if the required dimensions are within spec.Conclusion(s): bd juncos confirmed customer indicated failure mode although specification is not a release criteria.Bd juncos will send to bd supplier columbus a quality alert to request investigation for cannula 17ga 3-1/2in.No formal corrective action is required.
