Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation results: received one unsealed 22ga x 1.00in.Insyte autoguard winged unit from lot: 3321581.Additionally, 5 photos were provided.A gross visual inspection was performed on the provided unit and adhesive was discovered.Microscopic analysis discovered the adhesive poured between the needle hub and the grip, preventing the needle from retracting.The button was unable to be activated so the adhesive may also have poured on the inside of the button.The reported defect was confirmed.During manufacturing, adhesive is dispensed into the hub to secure the cannula.Station misalignment may cause the adhesive to pour on the outside of the hub which can then flow in between the needle hub and the grip or the button.This may cause partial/slow/ or no retraction.A vision system software is in place to mitigate the occurrence of this defect.A trend was identified for needle retraction failure complaints and corrective actions were implemented to address this issue.The implicated lot was manufactured after the implementation dates.This complaint type and corrective action will continue to be monitored for effectiveness.A notification of awareness has been sent to the manufacturing department.Investigation conclusion(s): the defect of ¿needle retraction failure¿ was confirmed.Probable root cause(s): manufacturing.
