Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The following fields were updated due to additional information: d9: device available for eval?: yes.D9: returned to manufacturer on: 1/14/2022.H6: investigation: one photo and two samples were received by our quality team for evaluation.From the photo, slant scale marking was observed in reference to the bd logo and retainer ring of the syringe.The syringes were subjected to visual inspection.Slight skewed scale marking was observed on one of the two samples.The one syringe sample with skewed scale marking was subjected to volumetric testing and passed.A review of the internal manufacturing device records and raw material history files for the reported lot number was performed and no recorded quality problems or rejections to this incident were found.Although there is a slight skew in the scale marking, it does not affect the dosage of the solution as the volumetric test is within specification.An investigation was conducted at the syringe apex printing machine to find the cause of the skewed printing.The printing pad set up plays an important role to achieve good printing on the barrel.With a good printing pad set up, consistent printing is achieved as the printing pad is secured on the printing drum.It was understood that any slight skewed printing was deemed acceptable during routine inspection as this defect does not affect the volumetric test.Therefore, the root cause is attributed to the inattentiveness of the slight skewed printing defect by the production technician during printing pad set-up and by both the manufacturing and quality assurance associate during routine inspection.
