Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation results: the complaint of a damaged extension tube was confirmed and the cause appeared to be associated with use.Five photographs and one 22g nexiva device were provided for investigation.The extension tubing completely broke at the distal end of the luer adapter.A piece of tubing remained adhered within the luer adapter.The adjoining surfaces of the tubing were rough and jagged, which is consistent with a break.It was reported that the tubing was likely caught and pulled during use.No damage associated with the manufacturing process was identified on the returned sample.Complaints received for this device and reported condition will continue to be tracked and trended.Investigation conclusion(s): the complaint of ¿tubing damaged/defective¿ was confirmed.As the extension tubing broke and a piece of the extension tube remained adhered within the luer adapter, 'tubing damaged/defective' was used as the as analyzed code to distinguish the failure mode from a complete separation (without a break) of the extension tubing from the luer adapter.Probable root cause conclusion(s): use related.
