(b)(4).The customer report of a kinked guide wire was confirmed through investigation of the returned sample.The guide wire was kinked in multiple locations, of which most of the kinked locations would be protected by the guide wire and straightener tubing.Despite this, the guide wire passed all relevant dimensional and functional requirements.Based on the customer report, comments from manufacturing, and circumstances of the sample received, it cannot be confirmed when the guide wire became kinked.Therefore, the potential root cause is undetermined at this time.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend on reports of this nature.
