Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation results: the complaint of black material was confirmed; however, the root cause and origin of the material could not be determined due to the sample condition.The black material was received separate from the catheter and attached to adhesive tape.As the catheter and foreign material were received in open packaging, it could not be determined when or how the material was introduced.A review of the inspection records and quality/manufacturing controls for the implicated lot indicated no issues with the manufacturing process.Manufacturing controls are in place to mitigate the occurrence of this type of failure.The complaint has been documented and will continue to be monitored as part of ongoing efforts to identify potential manufacturing related issues.
