Evaluation summary the device history record (dhr) was reviewed showing nothing out of the ordinary occurred during the overall process of the lot.No maintenance or mechanical issues occurred.A sample was received for evaluation and the reported issue was confirmed.A foreign matter was observed on the black piston of the plunger.The contamination is not microbiological and was concluded to be rust originating from a rusted particle embedded in the black piston.Therefore, the foreign matter observed on the black piston is most likely a metal particle made of iron.The syringe is filled with saline that is filtered so it is unlikely it would have been introduced during this manufacture process.It is most likely that the metal particle was already in the syringe when it was received from the syringe supplier.The sample was sent to the syringe supplier for further investigation.No corrective or preventive action is planned at this time.If additional information is received, the investigation will resume as needed.This complaint will be used for tracking and trending purposes.
