H10: manufacturing review: a lot history record review could not be completed as the lot number was not provided.Investigation summary: one x-port isp with groshong catheter in two segments was received and evaluated.The proximal segment was returned attached to the port body.Gross examination of the port segment showed multiple puncture access of the port septum.A complete elliptically shaped circumferential break was noted at approximately 11.6cm from the distal end of the cath-lock.The tactile evaluation showed necking at the crease sites.The sample segments were independently patent to infusion and aspiration and no leaks were observed.3 photos were evaluated.One photo shows one x-port isp with groshong catheter in two segments with the proximal segment attached to the port body.The second photo shows a close up of the x-port isp with groshong catheter in two segments.The third photo shows the two separate segments of catheter with circumferential break ends of the tubing.Photos of the complaint sample supplied by the complainant shows conformation with the sample received.The investigation confirms the catheter break issue.A definitive root cause could not be determined.Labeling review: a review of product labeling documents (e.G., procedural instructions, indications, warnings, precautions, cautions, possible complications, contraindications, nursing guide, and unit label) showed that the product labeling is adequate.H10: the catalog number identified in section d4 has not been cleared in the us, but is similar to the x-port isp with groshong catheter products that are cleared in the us.The 510 k number and pro code for the x-port isp with groshong catheter products are identified in d2 and g5.H11:section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
