Manufacturer Narrative

(b)(4).The customer provided two photos for analysis.The complaint of a catheter migrated was confirmed by the photos.The images show that the catheter had separated from the juncture hub suture wings during use.However, a complete visual inspection could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.The instructions for use (ifu) provided with this kit warns the user, "do not secure, staple and/or suture directly to outside diameter of catheter body or extension lines to reduce risk of cutting or damaging the catheter or impeding catheter flow.Secure only at indicated stabilization locations.Indwelling catheters should be routinely inspected for desired flow rate, security of dressing, correct catheter position , and for secure luer-lock connection.Use centimeter markings to identify if the catheter position has changed." the customer report of a migrated catheter was confirmed by visual inspection of the customer supplied photos.The photos show that the catheter had separated from the juncture hub suture wings during use , which likely resulted in the catheter migration reported by the customer.However, full complaint verification testing could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified to suggest a manufacturing related issue.Without the device to evaluate, the probable cause could not be determined from the available information.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
