(b)(4).The customer returned the outside packaging of a cvc kit including one catheter for evaluation.No signs of use were observed.Visual analysis revealed the returned catheter is a 16 cm catheter, which is not the intended 20 cm catheter in finished good.No other defects or anomalies were observed.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.The customer report of an incorrect catheter was confirmed through complaint investigation of the returned sample.Visual inspection revealed the returned catheter was 16 cm instead of the intended 20 cm.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.Based on these circumstances, packaging caused or contributed to this event.Non-conformance was initiated to further investigate this issue.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for complaints of this nature.
