Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation results: the complaint of foreign matter was confirmed; however, the source of the material could not be determined due to the sample condition.Two photographs and one 20g insyte autoguard were provided for investigation.The catheter was received in open packaging.A dark colored material was found on the catheter.A material analysis showed that the material most closely resembled a plastic material, but the source and exact composition could not be determined.As the device has been opened, it could not be determined with certainty whether the material was introduced during manufacturing or after opening the unit package.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.
