Qn#(b)(4).The actual device was not returned; however the customer provided one video and two photos for analysis.The photos and video show the introducer needle and the needle appeared unable to aspirate.The complaint of needle hub cracked was not able to be confirmed by the photos and video as the crack was not visible.A complete visual inspection could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.The instructions for use (ifu) provided with this kit warns the user, "alcohol , acetone, and polyethylene glycol can weaken the structure of polyurethane materials." without the device to evaluate, the probable cause could not be determined from the available information.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
