Additional information was received 30jul2024.The wire was not altered prior to use.The patient's vessels were reportedly small, and the patient was receiving vasopressors.Access was obtained in the right radial artery using ultrasound guidance, and blood return was noted upon insertion of the access needle, prior to advancement of the wire.Resistance was encountered upon insertion of the wire.The user attempted to pull the wire back; however, resistance was encountered.The wire then unraveled and separated, leaving a portion of the wire in the vessel.Per the reporter, the wire was not pulled back or manipulated through a needle or other metal instrument.The procedure (arterial line placement) was not successfully completed.The wire was retrieved surgically and the artery was repaired.

Additional/corrected information: d4, h4.Summary of event: as reported, during placement of an arterial line in a critical care unit, a micropuncture traditionless stiffened cannula access set's wire split/sheared apart during insertion.The wire was surgically removed, and the radial artery was repaired.Additional information was received 30 jul 2024.The wire was not altered prior to use.The patient's vessels were reportedly small, and the patient was receiving vasopressors.Access was obtained in the right radial artery using ultrasound guidance, and blood return was noted upon insertion of the access needle, prior to advancement of the wire.Resistance was encountered upon insertion of the wire.The user attempted to pull the wire back; however, resistance was encountered.The wire then unraveled and separated, leaving a portion of the wire in the vessel.Per the reporter, the wire was not pulled back or manipulated through a needle or other metal instrument.The procedure (arterial line placement) was not successfully completed.The wire was retrieved surgically, and the artery was repaired.Investigation evaluation: reviews of the complaint history, device history record (dhr), instructions for use (ifu), and quality control procedures were conducted during the investigation.The complaint device was not returned to cook for investigation.A document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device history record found no relevant non-conformances on the final lot or component lots.A review of complaint history found one additional relevant complaint for this lot number.No additional complaints were noted on any other final lot containing the same component lots as the complaint device.The product ifu states ¿do not attempt to insert or withdraw the wire guide and/or introducer if resistance is felt.¿ a review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.The information provided upon review of the dmr, dhr, and ifu suggests that there is evidence the device was manufactured to specification.There is no evidence of non-conforming devices in-house or in the field.Based on the information provided and the results of the investigation, cook has concluded that the patient¿s anatomy most likely contributed to this event.The patient¿s vessels were reportedly small, the patient was receiving vasopressors, and the device was used in the radial artery, which is susceptible to vasospasm.The risk analysis for this failure mode was reviewed and no additional escalation was required.The appropriate personnel have been notified and cook will continue to monitor for similar events.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.
