(b)(4).Additional information states that the dilator was kinked/bent not the catheter as stated in the initial report.The report of a damaged dilator body was confirmed through complaint investigation.Visual analysis revealed that the distal portion of the dilator body contained a gradual and continuous bend.Despite the damage, the dilator met all relevant dimensional and functional requirements, and a device history record review did not reveal any relevant findings.Based on the customer report that the defect was observed "during use" and the sample received, unintentional use error likely caused or contributed to this event.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
