Investigation results: our quality engineer inspected the photograph and sample submitted for evaluation.Bd received one photo and 24gx0.75in nexiva device from lot number 3320146.The unit on the photo appears to be the physical return unit.The needle was received protruding through the catheter tubing.What appeared to be blood residue was observed throughout the catheter tubing, which indicates that the product was used.Your reported issue was confirmed.As the unit is observed to have been used, it is unlikely that the damage occurred during manufacturing.Had the defect occurred during manufacturing, the condition of the catheter and needle would render the device unusable.It is likely that the needle and catheter were inserted far enough to access the vessel, after which the needle was retracted and reinserted to puncture the catheter.Please refer to the ifu (instructions for use) which indicate that if the needle is partially or completely withdrawn from the catheter tubing during insertion, do not re-insert the needle into the catheter tubing as damage may occur.A device history record review showed no non-conformances associated with this issue during the production of this batch.
