Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The device was returned for analysis.The reported material separation was able to be confirmed.Electronic lot history record (elhr) and corrective and preventive actions (capa) reviews were performed and revealed no indication of a product quality issue.Additionally, a review of the complaint handling database identified no other similar incidents from this lot.As there was no damage noted to the device during the inspection prior to use, the investigation determined the reported difficulties appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure as it is likely that inadvertent mishandling during stylet removal and/or during preparation for use resulted in the reported tip separation/noted tip jacket and the inner member separations.Additionally, the noted kinked inner member and the noted sheath separation likely occurred due to inadvertent mishandling and/or during packing for return analysis.Based on the reported information and results of the complaint investigation there is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.D1 correction: brand name updated.D2a correction: common device name updated.D3 correction: name, address updated.
