Correction: upon further review, it was determined this event is not reportable under fda 21 cfr part 803 as it does not meet the criteria for a death, serious injury or reportable product malfunction as there is no indication of the malfunction leading to an ae.Further discussion determined that this event did not require an additional surgical intervention to preclude permanent impairment or death as the catheter "was sticking out for the radiologist to successfully remove it.Therefore, this event is no longer considered a serious injury per 21 cfr part 803.3.Additionally, a review of risk documentation does not indicate that this event is likely to cause serious injury if it were to reoccur.As there are no recorded incidences of serious injury due to the complaint event, and it is not likely that serious injury would result if the event were to recur, per 21cfr part 803.50 the complaint event is considered not reportable.
