Qn#(b)(4).Complaint verification testing could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.The ifu provided with the kit informs the user, "avoid tearing sheath at insertion site which opens surrounding tissue creating a gap between catheter and dermis".A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.Without the device to evaluate, the complaint could not be confirmed, and the probable cause could not be determined from the available information.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
