Event Description
|
It was reported while using bd insyte autoguard-n winged, 24g x 0.56" the catheter backs out of the vein.There was no report of patient impact.The following information was provided by the initial reporter: sometimes you can see under the skin where the needed has split the catheter and its making what looks like a bubble.If you pull the needle out of the catheter to check for blood flow it is difficult if not impossible to feed it back through the catheter.Other times when you pull back the needle to check for blood flow it catches on the catheter and the whole thing pulls out.

Investigation summary: our quality engineer inspected the photographs submitted for evaluation.Bd received two photographs which displayed four different 24g insyte-n autoguard units.One photo showed one 24g insyte-n autoguard winged device.The other photo showed three 24g insyte-n autoguard winged devices.These photographs were submitted for each reported issue.The photos confirmed the issue of the needle protruding through the side of the catheter.A catheter spear through could potentially cause the needle to catch on the catheter tubing when pulling back the needle, causing both components to back out of the vein.As the provided pictures do not provide any other evidence that could indicate a different root cause, the reported defect of the catheter backing out of the vein remains a concomitant failure of the needle piercing the catheter.Due to the evidence of use, the needle likely punctured the catheter during the insertion process.A device history record review showed no non-conformances associated with this issue during the production of this batch.
