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 damaged midline catheter was confirmed.The product returned for evaluation was one 18ga powerglide pro rt midline catheter.The returned sample comprised a segment of catheter shaft approximately 2cm long.The fragment included the distal tip.The proximal catheter segment, including the luer adapter was not returned.Usage residues were observed throughout the sample.The break exhibited a tapered profile.Microscopic inspection of the break confirmed a tapered profile.The break surface was partially granular and partially glossy.Microscopic inspection of the catheter revealed folding and buckling of the distal tip.Material discoloration was observed in the vicinity of the deformation.The catheter break features were consistent with damage initiated by contact between the catheter shaft and the needle tip.Such damage can occur if the catheter is withdrawn or if the needle is reinserted following catheter advancement.The catheter tip deformation suggested that insertion against resistance, such as into tissue, likely contributed.
