H.6.Investigation summary one photo was received and evaluated for catalog 305270 lot 6299513.The photo depicted a single packaged integra syringe.Only half of the package was visible in the photo.It was not clear whether the package had been opened or still sealed as the whole package was not visible.The syringe inside had no shield present over the needle.The stopper appeared to be at the breakout position, suggesting that the syringe was likely unused.Based on the partial package photo provided, it is possible that the potential root cause for the missing shield defect is associated with the assembly process.A photo of the entire package would be preferable for a better evaluation.Physical sample is necessary for better investigation of a potential root cause.No corrective actions are necessary based on the defective rate identified.A device history review was conducted for lot number 6299513.Batch 6299513 is considered in compliance with our product specification requirements.Complaints received for this device and reported condition will continue to be tracked and trended.Information will be captured on trend reports and monitored monthly.Our business team regularly reviews the collected data for identification of emerging trends.
