Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant/reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.The complaint of a leak when flushing a lumen was confirmed and was determined to be use related.One 4 fr dl powerpicc solo catheter was returned for evaluation.The investigation findings are consistent with catheter damage caused by contact with a sharp-edged instrument such as a scalpel.The returned product sample was evaluated and a split was observed in the extension leg tubing of the red luer.Microscopic examination of the catheter split confirmed it was typical of contact with a sharp bladed instrument, and the characteristics observed which supported this type of failure included: the fracture surface was reflective in nature and contained a striated pattern.This can occur due to pattern transfer of the sharpened edge typically found on a scalpel-type instrument.Sharply formed fracture edges.Planar shape to the fracture surface.An examination of the catheter structure revealed no potential damage/defect related to manufacture of the product.This complaint will be recorded for future trending and monitoring purposes.
