It was reported that bd nexiva dual port squirted blood and saline out of second port.The following information was provided by the initial reporter: on (b)(6) 2024 a nurse went to flush a nexiva 20g dual port, the catheter line was full of blood and when the nurse flushed the main port the secondary port squirted blood and the saline flush out and into the rn's eye.This is concerning for staff safety but also patient risk for infection if the injection ports are not occlusive.

Investigation results: our quality engineer inspected the representative samples submitted for evaluation.Bd received two 20gx1.00in nexiva devices from lot number 2088292.A device history record review showed no non-conformances associated with this issue during the production of this batch.The initial report received did not provide a lot number.A gross visual inspection shows that the units are sealed in their packaging and there are no observed defects.The two units were removed from their packaging and the needle was decoupled from the tip shield.The catheter assembly was used for testing.A luer lock syringe was used to flush water through the primary port while the second port was connected to a q-syte and no leakage was observed.The same activity was repeated, this time flushing from the secondary port and closing the first port and no leakage was observed.The returned units provided for evaluation met and performed per the required manufacturing specifications.There was no physical/mechanical evidence to confirm and support a manufacturing process related issue for the failures stated in your report.Complaints received for this device and reported condition will continue to be tracked and trended.Information will be captured on trend reports and monitored.
