Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The patient developed lesions from the device and allergic reactions.There have been 2 similar complaints in the previous 24 months for 1600 series cannula under "skin irritation/reaction".No returned material, no pictures of defect/skin reaction.Complaint cannot be confirmed.Root cause: skin sensitization is a well-known risk and occurs most often when patients are first exposed to cannula or when using the cannula for a prolonged period of time.Cannulas may harden over time and cause irritation, that is why it is recommended to change cannula out every 14 days.Sensitivity to the pressure of the tubing can increase over time and can be mitigated by switching from 1600 to a 16soft style cannula or using products such as ez-wraps.Risk(rma-20017a): r1: patient skin contact with cannula - patient exposed to cannula repeatedly over long-term use - s=7 o=2 rpn=14.Rpn < 25, therefore risk is acceptable.
