Event or Problem Description

|
The customer reported that the needle malfunctioned while activating the safety resulting in a needle stick.The needle was used to draw up lidocaine and off of the syringe when the poke happened.This could cause a problem if it was a needle used in a patient or if the needle was to bend in the patient, so they reported it as a potential patient safety event.Additional information received on 07jan2025 stated that there was not medical treatment required, just the required testing.

A review of the device history record (dhr) was not performed during this investigation as the lot number was not received with the complaint.Prior to a lot¿s release, the lot must be deemed acceptable by-passing inspections that are based on a valid sampling plan.During production, inspectors routinely examine a statistical sample both physically and visually.There were no devices returned for evaluation; therefore, the affected product could not be evaluated to confirm the reported issue.As such, a root cause could not be determined.We will continue to monitor related reports to determine if additional actions are necessary.
