Investigation findings demonstrate the as analyzed code of failure to decouple which is not mdr reportable.Investigation summary: our quality engineer inspected the samples submitted for evaluation.Bd received 2 used 20gx1.25in needle assembly of a nexiva unit from lot number 3087440.A gross visual inspection shows that one unit has been decoupled from the catheter assembly and the second unit not.The returned tip of unit #1 shield was further inspected and a damage with a shape of a tear drop was observed inside the component.Unit 2 has blood indicating use.Upon attempting to decouple, a slight resistance was felt and upon coming off, the defect similar to unit #1 was observed.Your reported issue was confirmed as a failure to decouple.Further investigation was performed, and inspection of the tip shield revealed that plastic from the tip shield was catching the v-clip preventing release of the winged adapter.Based on the location of the damage, this most likely originated during the manufacturing process while inserting the cannula into the grip and tip shield.Operators perform in process sampling and testing for retraction throughout the manufacturing process.Preventative maintenance (pm's) are also performed periodically to ensure proper function of the equipment.A device history record review showed no non-conformances associated with this issue during the production of this batch.
