Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional product codes: dqo, dqe, kra, dqk, drs, dsb, dxn, qaq.Additional premarket submission: k231248.Device is not available for return.Without return of the unit, it is not possible to determine if some damage or defect existed on the unit that could have contributed to the event.However, an engineering evaluation was initiated to assess for any manufacturing related processes which could be correlated to the reported lot number.A supplemental report will be forthcoming once the engineering evaluation is complete.Per the instruction for use, the catheter should remain indwelling only as long as is required by the patient's condition.The incidence of complications increases significantly with indwelling periods longer than 72 hours.Complaint histories for all reported events are reviewed against trending control limits on a monthly basis and any excursions above the control limits are assessed and documented as a part of the monthly review.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The device history record review was completed and the product passed without nonconformances.The product was not returned, however an image evaluation was completed on the provided photo and video.The reported event of "leakage" was confirmed.Leakage appeared to occur at proximal injectate hub and extension tube area.During the execution of the engineering evaluation process, it was identified that the assembly of the components where the leakage occurs is not manufactured internally in the manufacturing process.Consequently, this is a supplier related condition, and the corresponding supplier notification was sent through mail by the quality team.
