Manufacturer Narrative

H11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.The following were reviewed as part of this investigation: patient severity, trend analysis, applicable previous investigation(s), sample (if available), and applicable fmea documents.Based on a review of this information, the following was concluded: the complaint of a leaking catheter was confirmed.The product returned for evaluation was one 20ga x 10cm powerglide pro catheter.Light usage residues were observed and the catheter exhibited curved shape memory.A v-shaped split was observed just distal of the molded joint between the luer adapter and catheter shaft.Microscopic inspection of the split revealed glossy, sharply defined fracture features.A regular, striated pattern was observed throughout the fracture surface.The fracture exhibited a tapered profile.The damage was consistent with contact between the catheter shaft and a sharp, pointed instrument such as a needle.Such damage can occur if the catheter is with drawn onto the introducer needle and/or if the needle is re-inserted following catheter advancement.This appeared consistent with the event description, which indicated that leakage was noted immediately following device placement.H3 other text : evaluation findings are in section h.11.
