The manufacturing location for this product is (b)(4).This site is not registered with the fda.Therefore, bd corporate headquarters in (b)(4) has been listed and the (b)(4) fda registration number has been used for the manufacture report number.Investigation summary : 1.Exec summary - no physical device samples were returned.There are no samples and 2 photographs received from the customer along with the reported complaint of catheter tip integrity.Since the original sample could not be used, the investigating team has used the retention samples of mat.No.391453 and lot no.1125200 for investigating the reported defect.The simulation was carried out on 10 retention samples for needle penetration force, and all samples showed no needle passing through catheter in them.A chance of misalignment or damages of such kind can occur if there is a positive trim of catheter vs needle, positive trim is when the catheter length is longer than the needle.This could occur during manufacturing on the machine(stations) the team identified three places(stations) which can contribute to these defects: the three stations of station 8, station 15 and station 18 showed the following: loose/ excess pulling was happening at station # 8- occasionally.Station # 15 blade changing frequency of 30 minutes but not monitored (this one cuts the catheter with respect to needle length) station # 18 centering was getting disturbed in rare frequency due machine vibration.These occasional or rare changes on three stations would impact on having a catheter cut higher than the needle leading to positive trim.Positive trim leads to needle being smaller in length than catheter and thus will pass through the catheter during inserting into the vein.All these stations have now been corrected to eliminate the rare occurrence of these probable root cause.A review of the complaint lot history check was performed and this is the 2nd related complaint for (catheter tip integrity) on this lot # 1125200.No non-conformances were raised in association with this type of event for this lot concluding all inspections were performed as per the applicable operations and met qc specifications.Capa/sa - based on the above no additional investigation and no corrective or preventative action (capa) or situational analysis (sa) are required at this time.Dhr review - a lot history review for this batch # 1125200 was carried out and no related non conformances were raised in association with these packaged lots concluding all inspections were performed as per the applicable operations and met qc specifications.

The following fields were updated due to additional information: d10: device available for eval? yes.D10: returned to manufacturer on: 12-nov-2022.H6.Investigation summary: samples and photos were received by bd for evaluation.A quality engineer was able to review the two pictures and inspect the returned samples for the reported issue of catheter tip damaged from lot # 1125200 product # 391453.The investigating team has also used the retention samples of lot # 1125200 product # 391453 for investigating the reported defect.The investigation and simulation were carried out on retention samples where the investigating team has visually tested the samples for catheter tip damaged and no catheter tip damaged was found in the retention samples.The sample returned confirmed the root cause to be due to positive trimming of the needle and the catheter as seen in the sample.
