Blank fields on this form indicate the information is unknown, unavailable, or unchanged.Investigation ¿ evaluation: it was reported that the catheter from a cook spectrum minocycline/rifampin impregnated double lumen central venous catheter tray occluded.The device was placed on (b)(6) 2023 in the right femoral.Unused lumens were maintained via ordered heparin-lock."hours" later, clotting occurred, and blood could not be drawn.Tpa was administered on (b)(6) 2023 at 14:18hr, (b)(6) 2023 at 03:53hr, (b)(6) 2023 at 07:02hr, and (b)(6) 2023 at 11:55hr.On (b)(6) 2023, a deep vein thrombosis (dvt) was diagnosed, and the patient received enoxaparin sodium administration.The event also resulted in prolonged hospitalization.No other adverse effects were reported for this incident.Reviews of the complaint history, device history record (dhr), quality control, and instructions for use (ifu), were conducted during the investigation.The complaint device was not returned; therefore, no physical examinations could be performed.However, a document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.A review of the dhr for the reported complaint device lot and related subassembly lots revealed no recorded non-conformances relevant to the failure mode.A complaint history search identified one additional complaint from the same facility associated with the reported device lot for a similar failure.Based on the available information, cook has concluded that the device was manufactured to specification and that there is no evidence suggesting nonconforming product exists either in house or in the field.Cook also reviewed product labeling.The ifu (c_t_ulmabrm_rev4) packaged with the device contains the following in relation to the reported failure mode: "suggested catheter maintenance: ¿ to prevent clotting or possibility of air embolus, the double-lumen¿s #2, and the triple-lumen¿s #2 and #3 lumens should be filled with saline solution or heparinized saline solution (100 units of heparin per cc of saline is usually adequate), depending on institutional protocol, prior to catheter introduction.¿ any unused lumens should be maintained with continuous saline or heparinized saline drip or locked with heparinized saline solution.Heparin-lock lumens should be reestablished at least every 8 hours.¿ before using any lumen already locked with heparin, lumen should be flushed with twice the indicated lumen volume using normal saline.Lumens should be flushed with normal saline between administrations of different infusates.After use, lumen should again be flushed with twice the indicated lumen volume using normal saline before reestablishing heparin lock." based on the available information, no product returned, and the results of the investigation, cook has concluded that component failure unrelated to manufacturing or design deficiencies contributed to the event.It is unknown if the customer flushed the device before and after each use.It is also unknown if the heparin-locked lumens were reestablished every 8 hours.The appropriate personnel have been notified.Cook will continue to monitor for similar complaints.Per the risk assessment no further action is required.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
