H6: investigation summary: bd received forty-eight 16 gauge insyte autoguard units from lot 9224642 for evaluation.A review of the device history record was performed for the reported lot and no quality issues were found during production.Our quality engineer separated the units into two groups to test for catheter placement and swage depth.During testing it was found that each of the units tested for catheter placement were within product specifications.None of the catheters became separated during testing.However, during the swage depth test one of the units was found to be outside of product specifications.If the swage depth is outside of product specifications it is likely that the catheter will become separated after placement.Based off the testing the engineer was able to verify the reported defect.It was determined that this was a manufacturing defect.The manufacturing facility has been notified of this incident and the findings.A project has been opened by the manufacturing facility to correct this issue.
