Manufacturer Narrative

Although there were no records that could cause this complaint during the analysis of the batch history and nonconformities, however, it can be seen that the adapter is slightly away from the needle barrel and the catheter is wrinkled.For a detailed analysis, the presence of the sample would be necessary.Based on investigations, it was found that a probable root cause for this incident was caused by a failure at the cannula assembly/guidance station on icam machine #03, chassis #01, as per maintenance order #( b)(4).This failure could have generated the part with the crushed cannula body that reached the chassis #02 of the icam #03 machine and would have been normally assembled as a common part, since it would not have been detected by the machine vision system or other controls.This crumpled cannula may have generated resistance when removing the catheter, wrinkling it and making puncture difficult.According to the maintenance order, adjustments were made to the alignment of the gripper position and air pressure on track #1, in order to mitigate the problem.Maintenance order attached.E1.Address information was not provided, therefore, xx was used as a place holder.
