The following fields were updated due to additional information: device available for eval yes, returned to manufacturer on: investigation summary our quality engineer inspected the 2 photos and 2 samples submitted for evaluation.The reported issues of needle through catheter were confirmed upon inspection and testing of the samples.Analysis of the samples showed the needle pierced through the catheter near the tip area and the cannula tip point was damaged.Bd could not confirm a manufacturing related root cause since the samples were all rejected by our in-line vision systems which serve to reject faulty products form the production line.Our investigation results show that these samples would have been automatically rejected if the failure occurred during production.There is a possibility the failure could have been caused during handling or transportation without the protection of needle cover.Since the samples were returned with detached needle cover and in open packaging a use related root cause cannot be determined.Production records were reviewed, and this batch meets our manufacturing specification requirements.
