Manufacturer Narrative

H.6.Investigation: our quality engineer inspected the photograph submitted for evaluation.Bd received one photo.Visual observation of the photo revealed the needle was only partially retracted which would allow for a needle stick injury to occur, confirming the reported defect.This defect is most likely related to the manufacturing process but without examining the actual device, a specific root cause could not be determined.A device history record review showed no non-conformances associated with this issue during the production of this batch.
