Manufacturer Narrative
The epifuse connector was returned in used condition.A visual inspection of the sample revealed no abnormality such as breakage.When unlocking the epifuse connector, the catheter was reconnected to the epifuse connector and the catheter removal test was performed.The reported event was not confirmed.This event seems to have occurred due to the fact that the catheter was not inserted deep enough in the epifuse connector / sleeve.A conclusive root cause could not be determined however.
 
Event Description
It was reported that the catheter slipped off from the connector while the patient was being transported.No death or serious injury was reported in connection with this incident.
