Manufacturing review: a lot history review was completed, which identified that this is the first complaint reported for this lot number.Investigation summary: a sample evaluation could not be performed as the samples were not returned therefore the investigation is inconclusive for the alleged catheter migrated out issue due to the fact that no sample was returned for evaluation.A definitive root cause could not be determined.Labeling review: a review of product labeling documents (e.G., procedural instructions, indications, warnings, precautions, cautions, possible complications, contraindications, nursing guide, and unit label) showed that the product labeling is adequate.

H10: manufacturing review: a lot history review was completed, which identified that this is the first complaint reported for this lot number.Investigation summary: one 23cm gildepath d/l catheter was returned for evaluation.Gross, microscopic visual and functional evaluations were performed.The investigation is inconclusive for catheter migration issue as the exact scenario cannot be replicated.Adhesive residue was noted to the catheter approximately 4.5cm from the distal end of the y-body and there was some spacing between the adhesive and the catheter.Upon infusion of both lumens with water from a 10ml syringe, blood was noted exiting from the distal end.A definitive root cause could not be determined.Labeling review: a review of product labeling documents (e.G., procedural instructions, indications, warnings, precautions, cautions, possible complications, contraindications, nursing guide, and unit label) showed that the product labeling is adequate.H10: the catalog number identified in section d4 has not been cleared in the us, but is similar to the glidepath hemodialysis catheter products that are cleared in the us.The pro code for the glidepath hemodialysis catheter products is identified in d2.H11:section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
