H6: investigation summary.No product or photo was returned by the customer.It was reported that the smartsite will not flush or flow, with partial or total occlusions.The customer complaint could not be verified due to the product not being returned for failure investigation.A device history record review for model 10010983 lot number 20055745 was performed.The search showed that a total of (b)(4) units in 1 lot number was built on 29may2020.There were no quality notifications issued for the failure mode reported by the customer during the production build of this set.A definitive root cause for the customer's experience could not be determined as no needle-free connector (smartsite) was returned.Following a small number of similar reports, bd has conducted an in-depth investigation to identify any potential contributing factors for occlusion of this nature.Capa 1998036 has been initiated.The investigation has determined that a potential contributor could be the result of an insufficient amount of fluorosilicone having been injected into the piston during the assembly process.Fluorosilicone is a lubricant used to ensure proper functioning of the needle-free connector when activated.
