Investigation results: the complaint of a damaged catheter was confirmed; however, the root cause could not be determined from the photographs that were provided for investigation.The photos showed an 18g insyte autoguard iv catheter, which had been separated from the needle.Something was protruding from the external surface of the catheter tubing; however, the source and composition of the matter could not be determined from the photograph.As the photo supports the complainant¿s description of the reported event, the complaint was confirmed; however, without the physical sample, the root cause of the reported issue could not be determined.A review of the inspection records and quality/manufacturing controls for the implicated lot indicated no issues with the manufacturing process.The complaint has been documented and will continue to be monitored as part of ongoing efforts to identify potential manufacturing related issues.A trend was identified for the reported failure and corrective actions have been implemented to investigate this type of incident and identity the root cause.Review of our risk management documentation was performed and indicates that the potential risk of the reported event was assessed appropriately.
