Qn# (b)(4).The report that a peel-away tabs broke off was confirmed through complaint investigation.Visual analysis revealed that the sheath was separated directly adjacent to the hub.Despite the damage, the sheath met all relevant dimensional requirements.Based on the customer report, the sample received, and the comments from r & d/mfg, manufacturing caused or contributed to this event.A device history record review was performed, and relevant findings were identified.For eb-01052-002 with batch 34c22c0032, investigations were created regarding peel away sheath extrusion defects.An investigation was initiated to further investigate the issue.The investigation is still on-going.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
