Investigation summary: a device history review was conducted for lot number 7327610.Our records show that this is the only instance of this issue occurring in this production batch.According to the sampling plan applied for product performance, this lot was accepted and released without defects being noted during the final assembly or visual inspections.Additionally, the punctured catheter observed in the submitted sample, prompted our quality engineers to review our manufacturing process; unfortunately they were unable to replicate the non-conformance or identify potential areas of concern.Without the ability to replicate this failure mode and based on their observations during their review, the root cause for this complaint could not be associated with the manufacturing process at the conclusion of our review.Based on investigation results the root cause cannot be determined.Possibly, this defect could be related with an inadequate handling after to open the package y/o device placement.
