Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The customer's reported complaint description of the patient experienced blood clots in their lungs and multiple issues since having a ct w/8fr detached poly cath w/vi smartport implanted cannot be confirmed since no complaint sample was returned.Without receiving product for evaluation, we are unable to definitively determine a root cause for this incident.A review of the device history records was performed for the indicated lots for any deviations related to the reported failure mode of the complaint.The review confirms that the lots met all material, assembly and performance specifications; i.E.No ncr associated with reported failure mode.Labeling review: the instructions for use (14608102-01) which is supplied to the user with this catalog number, contains the following statements: warnings: - absence of a blood return or a poor blood return can be a sign of a potential complication such as occlusion, kinking, breakage, pinch-off syndrome, fibrin formation, thrombosis or malposition.This should be evaluated prior to device usage.A blood return should be present prior to usage of device for any therapy or testing.- if the patient complains of pain, or if there is swelling when the device is flushed or when medication or contrast media is administered, evaluate the device for infiltration, proper needle placement, and potential complications such as occlusion, kinking, breakage, pinch-off syndrome, thrombosis or malposition.Failure to assess these complaints or observations can lead to device failure.Precautions: · for peripheral placement, irritation to the vein, resulting in postoperative thrombophlebitis, has been associated with guidewire and introducer insertion.· when using percutaneous introducers: to avoid blood vessel damage, do not allow the percutaneous introducer sheath to remain indwelling in the blood vessel without the internal support of a catheter or dilator.· if more than one drug is to be administered, between the individual drug applications, flush the system with 5 to 10 ml normal saline for injection to prevent drug interactions.· after any infusion, injection or bolus application, the system should be flushed with normal saline for injection or locked with a heparin solution per institutional protocol to prevent thrombotic occlusion of the catheter.Potential complications: use of an angiodynamics port system involves potential risks normally associated with the insertion or use of any implanted device or indwelling catheter including but not limited to: these complications are well documented in literature and should be considered when a venous access device is utilized: air embolism, clot formation, fibrin sheath, infection, inflammation, thromboembolism, and thrombosis.A review of the angiodynamics complaint system noted no adverse trends for this complaint type and product family.This type of complaint will continue to be monitored for trends.Reference (b)(4).
