The following fields were updated due to additional information: d10: device available for eval yes, d10: returned to manufacturer on: 09-jan-2023.H6: investigation summary: our quality engineer inspected the sample submitted for evaluation.Bd received one catheter assembly of a 20gx1.00in single port nexiva unit from lot number 1236482.The reported issue that the needle and tip shield failed to separate from the nexiva catheter hub was confirmed and the cause appeared to be manufacturing related.The needle was retracted but the tip shield would not decouple from the catheter adapter.Further investigation was performed by wiggling the wing adapter out of the shield.Upon separation, inspection of the tip shield revealed that plastic from the tip shield was catching the v-clip preventing release of the winged adapter.Upon separation of the two components damage to the inside of the tip shield where the winged adapter resides was found.Based on the location of the damage, the defect most likely originated during the manufacturing process while inserting the cannula into the grip and tip shield.A device history record review showed an in-process sampling where the cannula insertion was out of alignment during part of the production of this batch.The misalignment was addressed, and a random sampling was performed where the units passed and were then released.H3 other text : see h10.
