(b)(4) medwatch received 12-nov-2024, mw5160944.Complaint verification testing could not be performed as it was reported that the sample is not available for return.A device history record review was performed and no relevant findings were identified.Although there was not a clear indication from the customer as to whether or not the patient experienced an allergic reaction, the following information is provided in the instructions for use (ifu) and warns the user, "contraindications: the arrowg+ard blue advance pressure injectable midline is contraindicated for patients with known hypersensitivity to chlorhexidine.Hypersensitivity potential: benefits of the use of this catheter should be weighed against any possible risk.Hypersensitivity reactions are a concern with antimicrobial catheters and can be serious and even life-threatening.Remove catheter immediately if catheter-related adverse reactions occur after catheter placement.".Without the device to evaluate, the complaint could not be confirmed and the probable cause could not be determined from the available information.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
