Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional product codes: ljs.Occupation: lead ir tech.This report includes information known at this time.A follow up report will be submitted should additional relevant information become available.
 
Event or Problem Description
It was reported a (b)(6) year old male picu patient had a spectrum turbo-ject antibiotic power injectable picc placed on (b)(6) 2021 for bedside medication infusion.Eighteen days after placement, the line broke.The device was heparin locked and secured with sutures, tegaderm, and k-loc.No power injection was used.The day after the break was noticed, the patient received a new picc line under general anesthesia.No other adverse effects have been reported.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Investigation ¿ evaluation: (b)(6) hospital informed cook of a hub issue for a upics-3.0-ct-nt-abrm-1110 (cook spectrum turbo-ject power-injectable picc) from lot 13842409.After being in place for 18 days, the hub was noted to have a slight separation from the tubing.The picc line was removed, and the patient received a new picc line on (b)(6) 2021.It is reported that the patient did not experience any adverse effects.Reviews of the complaint history, device history record (dhr), instructions for use (ifu), and quality control, as well as a visual inspection of the device was conducted during the investigation.The complaint device was not returned; therefore, no physical examinations could be performed.However, a document-based investigation evaluation was performed.Cook reviewed the device master record and concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.The device history record for lot 13842409 records no relevant non-conformances.The component lots and sub assembly lots did not have any nonconformances.A database search for complaints on the reported lot found no additional complaints reported from the field.Cook concluded that no nonconforming product from this lot exists in house or in the field.Cook also reviewed product labeling.The product ifu (t_upicabrm_rev2) "cook spectrum turbo-ject peripherally inserted central venous catheters with micropuncture peel-away introducers" provides the following information to the user related to the reported failure mode: intended use: "the maximum pressure limit setting for power injectors used with the spectrum turbo-ject picc may not exceed 325 psi and the flow rate may not exceed the masimum flow rate indicated, as shown on the following table." warnings "-the safe and effective use of turbo-ject picc lines with power injector pressures set above 325 psi has not been established.-do not power inject if maximum injection rate cannot be verified to meet limit printed on catheter hub or extension tube.-to safely use turbo-ject picc lines with a power injector, the technician/health care professional must verify prior to use that the maximum pressure limit is set at or below 325 psi and that the maximum flow rate is at or below that which is listed on the catheter.Dynamic and statis pressure test results are shown in the following table.[3fr single hub has a 0.52 ml priming volume, 2ml/sec labeled flow rate, 123 psi maximum flow, 249 psi 37 degrees celsius average static burst water pressure, 237-258 psi 37 degrees celsius range static burst pressure.] *maximum flow rate pressures are determined with pump safety cut-off set at 325 psi, using contrast media with a viscosity of 11.8 cp.**static burst pressure is the failure point of the catheter when totally occluded.Warning: power injector machine pressure limiting feature may not prevent over pressurization of an occluded catheter." precautions -if lumen flow is impeded, do not force injection or withdrawal of fluids.Notify attending physician immediately.-patient movement can case catheter tip displacement.Catheters places via an antecubital vein have shown tip movement of up to 10 cm with motion of the extremity.-catheter size should be as small as the use will allow.Instructions for use: power injection procedure: "2.Remove any injection/needless caps from the spectrum turbo-ject picc.3.Attach a 10ml (or larger) syringe filled with sterile normal saline to the hub of the extension tube to be used for power injection.4.Ensure adequate blood return and flush catheter vigorously with the entire 10 ml of sterile normal saline to ensure lumen patency.Warning: failure to ensure patency of the catheter lumen prior to injection may result in catheter failure.5.Remove syringe and attach power injection device to the catheter using the manufacturer's recommendations.6.Conduct study using the power injector, making sure not to exceed the maximum flowrate or pressure limit for the catheter.7.Disconnect the power injection device and flush the catheter again with 10 ml of sterile normal saline.8.Place a new injection/needeless cap on the spectrum turbo-ject picc, flush and lock the catheter with saline or heparinized saline per institutional protocol." how supplied supplied sterilized by ethylene oxide gas in peel-open packages.Intended for one-time use.Sterile if packaging is unopened or undamaged.Do not use the product if there is doubt as to whether the product is sterile.Store in a dark, dry, cool place.Avoid extended exposure to light.Upon removal from package, inspect the product to ensure no damage has occurred." based on the device master record, device history record, and design history file review, there is no indication the device was manufactured out of specification.There is no evidence of nonconforming material in house or in the field.Based on the information provided, no inspection of returned product and the results of the investigation, it was determined the cause of this event is related to inadequate design change validation.There is no indication the device was manufactured out of specification.This product failure was previously investigated under a capa.The capa investigation found that the root cause is related to inadequate flexural strength in a previous hub design change.Investigation further found that the devices were manufactured to specification and there was no evidence of lot-related issues.The appropriate internal personnel have been notified.Cook will continue to monitor for similar complaints.Per the risk assessment, no further action is required.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
