(b)(4).Complaint verification testing could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.The instructions for use (ifu) provided with this kit warns the user, "precaution: do not suture directly to the outside diameter of access device to minimize the risk of cutting or damaging device or impeding device flow." a device history record review was performed based on a potential lot from sales history, 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.
