Correction: d4-model#, h6-annex a.Investigation ¿ evaluation: (b)(6) 2024, it was reported that the blue hub in a cook spectrum minocycline/rifampin impregnated triple lumen central venous catheter set was leaking after placement in the neck of a 39-year-old male patient.The leakage was discovered immediately after the procedure during the injections.The catheter was replaced, and there were no adverse effects to the patient due to this occurrence.A video provided by the customer showed a crack in the catheter hub.Reviews of the documentation, including the complaint history, device history record, quality control procedures, and instructions for use of the device, were conducted during the investigation.The complaint device was not returned for evaluation; therefore, a physical examination could not be conducted.However, a document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify the failure mode prior to distribution.A review of the device history record (dhr) for the device lot found no relevant recorded nonconformances that could have contributed to the reported failure mode.It should be noted that there were two other complaints associated with the final product lot number.Cook also reviewed product labeling: the product ifu, [c_t_ctulmabrm_rev7] ¿cook spectrum central venous catheter minocycline/rifampin antibiotic impregnated power injectable,¿ provides the following information to the user related to the reported failure mode: warnings: ¿the safe and effective use or central venous catheters with power injector pressures (safety but-off) set above 325 psi has not been established.Do not power inject if maximum injection rate cannot be verified to meet limit of 10ml/sec.To safely use catheters with a power injector, the technician/heath care professional must verify prior to use that the maximum safety cut-off pressure limit is set at or below 325 psi and that the maximum flow rate is at or below 10 ml/sec.Do not exceed the maximum flow rate of 10 ml/sec.Exceeding the maximum flow rate of 10 ml/sec may result in catheter failure and/or catheter tip displacement.Power injector machine pressure limiting (safety cut-off) settings may not prevent over-pressurization of an occluded catheter.Precautions: ¿catheter should not be used for long-term indwelling applications.¿ evidence gathered upon review of dmr, product labeling, and dhr, does not indicate the device was manufactured out of specification.There is no evidence of nonconforming material in house or in the field.Based on the information provided, no returned product and the results of our investigation, it was concluded that a component failure unrelated to manufacturing or design deficiencies contributed to the reported event.The use of hemostats or lubrication, such as fluids remaining on the hub, during application of external components may further contribute to over-engagement, introducing additional forces to the hub.Per the risk assessment no further action is required.The appropriate personnel have been notified.Cook will continue to monitor for similar complaints.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
