(b)(4).Complaint verification testing could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified to suggest a manufacturing related issue.The instructions for use (ifu) provided with this kit warns the user, "contraindications: the arrow large-bore two-lumen catheter is not designed for long-term (greater than or equal to 30 days) hemodialysis or for use in patients with thrombosed vessels." 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.
